Wow, I find it rather surprising that String out-performs Text; any idea why that is? I wonder if you're just using it wrong...
Could be, I'd be very happy if that were the case. All of the benchmarks are available on Github, and the bytestring[1], text[2] and string[3] versions are all rather short.
Do you include the cost of encoding the result as e.g. UTF-8? The hope would be that the more compact Text would be faster to traverse, and thus encode, than the list based String.
