I'm using ghc7 here.  If I run your program with -O2, it takes 1943 MB of
memory max.

If I comment out everything except g and h then with -O2 it takes 1521 MB.

If I comment out everything except g then with -O2 it takes 1521 MB.

I'm not sure where the extra 400 MB of memory are going.

When I compile with: -fno-cse -fno-full-laziness and -O2, the memory usage
(with g though n) is 1585 MB.
