None of them uses a timeout. The difference is that they implement all the transformations after the parsing phase, and there are no Haskell functions or arbitrary data types in the syntax tree (unless we bring generics into the picture).

Of course, as soon as I give everything an explicit representation, this part of the story is straightforward.
