Thanks a lot. This conduit world is really new to me and feels a bit more complicated than enumerators, but at least I seem to be getting the right intuition.
I can assure you that while this may be true for simple cases, it most definitely is not true for at least one more complex case. I have a hackage package http-proxy which initially used Enumerator and now uses Conduit. The Enumerator version was extremely difficult to figure out and eventually required a function like this: enumIteratee :: MonadIO m => Int64 -> (Int -> Iteratee ByteString m ByteString) -> Enumerator ByteString (Iteratee ByteString m) c with an Iteratee nested inside an Enumerator. The Conduit version was much easier to put together because conduits seem to compose much more naturally. IMO, Conduit is a significant improvement over Enumerator but a better solution may still exist (I'm interested in seeing how Pipes work out).
