`allPairs list = [(x,y) | x <- list, y <- list] ` is not what `combination` does !

Yeah, I know that. I said so specifically. combination computes the power set of a list. You said your goal was to compute a set of "two groups". You don't need the power set in order to compute a set of pairs. Moreover, computing the power set is a slow operation. Indeed, it is the source of your slowness.
