I've heard it's hard to contain a long-running Haskell application in
a finite amount of memory, but this is probably not a problem if your
web site sleeps 0.001% of the time (like XMonad), or you can restart
it every once in a while without anyone noticing.

No doubt the potential for encountering space leaks goes up as one writes

Is there a way to do binary serialization of Haskell values (in GHC,
at least)? If you propose a method, what are its type safety and
portability properties?

I noticed that on Programming Reddit, where I lurk, there is a big
discussion about the disconnect between how much Haskell is advocated
there and the number of applications written in it.

If avoiding success at all costs is the goal, wouldn't having a cool

I'm still learning Haskell and also evaluating whether I want to use
the language in my work.
It seems like a fascinating language so far (although I don't know if
laziness will be a detriment later for me eventually), but I'm a bit
worried about the overall quality of its GHC implementation.

I've been following with interest the recent discussions on reddit
about the extremely slow hash tables in Haskell compared to F# and
OCaml, and as I understood it, this performance problem is caused by
