Comment (by guest):
re: your last two paragraphs. I'd like to be able to compile with -O for
the sake of the other parts of the module. Maybe GHC can detect when
there's a large literal that it shouldn't try to optimize with? Or maybe
a code writer could annotate it with NOINLINE or some other pragma that
tells GHC not to try to waste time optimizing it? (perhaps as if it were
in a separate module that were compiled with -O0... Actually putting it in
a separate module would be an especial nuisance for a tool like Alex to
generate). But I guess I don't have an urgent problem here.
