Aeson doesn't have an incremental parser so it'll be difficult/impossible to do what you want. I guess you want an event-based JSON parser, such as yajl [1]. I've never used this library, though.

Ah, I see. Thanks, I wasn't aware of that library. So it seems that using either 'aeson' or 'json', we should be prepared to pay the full cost of input message (string/bytestring) plus the cost of the converted data structures. thanks! iustin
