    Call it, or don't make it lazy. Commented Jun 9, 2012 at 1:20
  • Why do you want to force a lazy value computation ? Why do you make it lazy ? It really looks like a code smell... Commented Jun 9, 2012 at 12:42

    I make it lazy to untie knot with mutual dependencies over immutable data structures. I need to force it in right place to untie dependencies in a way to escape stack overflow with uncontrolled recursion. Commented Jun 9, 2012 at 19:52
