Some people might be quite excited by Milan's work on significant performance improvements to the containers package...

This looks quite nice; good work Milan!!! As an aside, Alex Mason and I are discussing the possibility of taking advantage of AusHack *shameless plug* to write some kind of classes for the different types of containers with a hierarchy. I know about ListLike, but there doesn't seem to be any applicable classes for generic containers (i.e. the abstract API of a Set; something like ListLike would then be an extension on it) and for lookup data structures (Map k a, [(k, a)], etc.). -- Ivan Lazar Miljenovic Ivan.Miljenovic@gmail.com IvanMiljenovic.wordpress.com
