There are two points where you waste time.


I found one big point where time is wasted: in computing the powerset of a list. He's making 2^n elements, and then iterating through them all and filtering, but only needs n^2 or n `choose` 2 of the (depending on the semantics for his "groups").

The answer is to do something like:

allPairs list = [(x,y) | x <- list, y <- list]

to get it done in n^2 time.
