If I undertand the coding correctly every tag is stored as a seperate Haskell string. As each byte of a string under GHC takes 12 bytes this alone leads to high memory usage.
Not that it detracts from your point, but I guess that is 24 bytes per character on 64 bit machinery? :-) -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
