Also if either or both of you (or someone else) would like to improve [http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Performance], notably the "space leak" sub-page (deserves a top level heading of its own), that would be great. Specifically, the lore of #5129 belongs there, not buried in a closed ticket. I'm sure there are other articles about looking for space leaks that could usefully be linked to from that space leak page, like [http://neilmitchell.blogspot.co.uk/2013/02/chasing-space-leak-in- shake.html Neil Mitchell's recent blog post].
