| I had similar experiences as you when attempting to write "high | performance Haskell"; the language makes you want to use high-level | abstracted functions but the optimizer (while amazing, to be honest) | seems to miss a few cases that it seems like it should hit. Ryan, if you find any of these, do please submit them to GHC's Trac bug-tracker. There's a special category for performance bugs. Small programs of the form "GHC should hit this, but doesn't" are incredibly useful. Thanks Simon
