I had started exploring the internal - PS constructor route looking at the base64 encoding implementation by Bryan (which is really fast - http://www.serpentine.com/blog/2010/09/02/fast-base64-encoding-and-decoding-... )- I was wondering if we don't use the PS constructor can we implement base64 encoding that's comparable? I mean, can we create an asymptotically similar implementation? Regards, Kashyap

I'm a fan of Data.ByteString.Unsafe.unsafeUseAsCStringLen when I need access to the raw buffer. http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/bytestring/0.9.1.10/doc/html/Dat... Antoine
