Hello, Olaf. I have some distrust of elegant solutions (one of them are C.P. libs).
[*] To the parser experts on this list: How much time should a parser take that processes a 50MB, 130000-line text file, extracting 5 values (String, UTCTime, Int, Double) from each line?
Not an expert, but for something as (relatively!) standard as CSV, I'd probably go for a specialized solution like 'cassava', which seems like it does quite well according to https://github.com/haskell-perf/csv
Playing the devil's advocate here.... If parser combinators aren't great for "relatively standard" things such as CSV, then what *are* they good for?
