You could do what I do: create an alias in bash. I have in my ~/.bashrc:

alias ciq='cabal install --disable-documentation
--disable-library-profiling --disable-executable-profiling'

The alias 'ciq' stands for 'cabal install quick' and disables things I
don't need during development, but do slow down the build.

Regards,

Erik
