Well, yes, I didnt say it would be easy ;-)

It could be useful to make a ballpark estimate of what kind of
performance we'd get running Haskell on a GPU, compared to running on
a CPU.  Any ideas on how to do this?

By the way, is there some reason we couldnt give the entire haskell
program to every thread, and simply pass in something roughly
equivalent to the program counter in with the data?
