Hi, I must start by saying, that I don't have any knowledge about ghc internals.
Performance of haskell programs seems to me heavily depended on the data structures of a simple linked lists. Because of the amount of cons-cells, simple linked lists aren't very GC-friendly. There is a paper about a replacement, called VLists. http://icwww.epfl.ch/publications/documents/IC_TECH_REPORT_200244.pdf So maybe VLists could be used in haskell internally for lists and strings.
