Hi, I’ve started the GHC Performance Regression Collection Proposal[1] (Rendered [2]) a while ago with the idea of having a trivially community curated set of small[3] real-world examples with performance regressions. I might be at fault here for not describing this to the best of my abilities. Thus if there is interested, and this sounds like an useful idea, maybe we should still pursue this proposal?
