These are all known and expected. As I said, you can expect lazy
versions to normally be slower than explicit loops. The question is
whether 50% more time and 300% more memory has a higher cost in your
case than the extra

A nit: the list is almost certainly getting created lazily, or you'd
get more than 300% more memory usage. But you still get the list's
cons cells as your bookkeeping baggage, and they take up space in

Won't they be garbage collected only after the last entry is used,
though? Since getDirectoryEntries returns a

It might be faster; laziness usually has higher constants than direct

Both versions which use getDirectoryContents also use much more memory
than the one which uses readDirStream (about 8M vs about 2M). Maybe I'm
not exploting getDirectoryContents' laziness correctly? I expected the

something that could be done more efficiently.
