Hi, 

I can't remember if it was threadscope that crashed or the RTS, since I was 
also having segfaults in the RTS because of this bug, that is fixed in 7.2.2: 
http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5552

I successfully used threadscope by running my code for fewer iterations to 
produce a smaller log, and it was helpful to make sure I was dividing work 
equally between the threads.

I think I still have the log file that was about 1.8GB so I will try running 
threadscope on it and see what happens.

The performance problems I was having turned out to be fixed completely by 
changing the GC options passed to the RTS.

thanks!

Tom
