| The thesis suggests that using Uniplate with the fastest instances

OK, so despite my recent exposure memory does not serve!  A factor of 10 
overhead for Uniplate-over-Data, as opposed to Uniplate directly, is much 
bigger than I thought.

Still, as you say, it's the API that matters.  We can always generate Uniplate 
instances later if they turn out to be the bottleneck.
