If scaleFloat and exponent are implemented with bit twiddling they can be quite fast.
is there a way in ghc to 'cast' between float/int32 and double/int64 (without going through memory)?
Yeah, "fromIntegral/Int->Float" fromIntegral = int2Float "truncate/Float->Int" truncate = float2Int "truncate/Double->Int" truncate = double2Int with appropriate no-op fromIntegrals for the 32 and 64 variants.
