Shouldn't the size adapt somehow? What if there are more faststrings in some later, bigger program? Won't this just happen again?
Yes, probably, but the flexibility may come at a cost. I don't have a solution yet, that's why this is a ticket and not a phabricator patch. I also don't expect to be able to focus on this in the near future. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14854#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
