Locks: getChar has to acquire locks, as does getContents. However, because getContents can operate on blocks, this requires many fewer locks.
What's to lock against? I'm writing single-threaded code.
unfortunately, there is one common code which used for any i/o. you may look at http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Library/Streams which allows to disable locking and thus provides very fast getChar implementation -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com
