Re: String != [Char]

I actually was not able to successfully google for Text vs. String benchmarks. If someone can point one out that would be very helpful. On Sat, Mar 17, 2012 at 1:52 AM, Christopher Done wrote:

Do you know if there is a good write-up of the benefits of Data.Text over String? I'm aware of the advantages just by my own usage; hoping someone has documented it rather than in our heads.

Good point, it would be good to collate the experience and wisdom of this decision with some benchmark results on the HaskellWiki as The Place to link to when justifying it.
