I finally squeezed enough time to try it, and it didn't work for me. -- ghc Overflow.hs [1 of 1] Compiling Overflow ( Overflow.hs, Overflow.o ) Overflow.hs:8:10:stack overflow: use +RTS -K<size> to increase it -- where Overflow.hs is in the vicinity of 40M and looks like -- {-# LANGUAGE OverloadedStrings #-} module Overflow where import qualified Data.ByteString.Lazy as S bigData :: S.ByteString bigData = "\0\0\0\0\0\5\67\195\0\0\0\0... -- I didn't compress it, because Codec.Compression.GZip didn't compile for me. It looked like a library change since 6.6 broke it. Is there a handy string escaping function in the libraries somewhere? It only took a minute to write one, and I spent longer than that looking, so maybe it's the wrong question.... Surely it's in there somewhere, and I'm just 2 dum 2 c.
