And try tweaking the GC options to keep the residency down (preferably
within the limits of real memory on your machine).  Use '+RTS -c' to
enable the compacting collector, and possibly use a -M switch to set the
maximum heap size to the amount of real memory - unless you need more
than that, of course.

Cheers,
        Simon
