   * '''Improve parallel profiling tools'''.  Satnam Singh and Simon Marlow have made a start on some tools for visualising the behaviour of parallel programs, but there is much more to do here, and it'll be eagerly adopted by users.
 
-  * '''Implement some low-level C-- optimisations'''.  During 2009 we expect to have the new C-- code generation route in place, and that will open up new opportunities for doing classic compiler-course optimisations on the imperative C-- code.  There is more than routine stuff here, because we can use our [http://research.microsoft.com/~simonpj/papers/c--|generic dataflow framework] to do the heavy lifting.  Here are some [wiki:BackEndNotes particular ideas for optimisations] we'd like to implement.
