I see, good to know. > I didn't even know people used JSON to store millions of integers. It > sounds like fun. Actually, that's not the actual use case :), this was just an example to show memory use with trivial data structures (where strictness/lazyness is easier to reason about). In my case, I have reasonably-sized message of complex objects, which results in the same memory profile: cost of input message (as String/ByteString) plus cost of the converted objects. What bothers me is that I don't seem to be able to at least remove the cost of the input data after parsing, due to non-strict types I convert to. thanks, iustin _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
