Comment (by dons):
You'll get further here if you use a Map of ByteStrings. The bytestring
literals will be unpacked at compile time, and the linker should then be
able to handle them better.
Using overloaded strings, you can even avoid having to insert 'pack' to
build the bytestrings.
see for example, this large static data, full of bytestrings,
