It's just two big files with 700K each generated by DtdToHaskell from two big DTD files around 70K each. > Are you using any "expensive" features?

This large module only contains datatype declarations and instance classes for HTypeable, XmlContent, XmlAttributes and XmlAttrType. > Bottom line: if compiling is so slow consider changing the code > generator so the result is easier to process by GHC instead of fiddling > with command line switches.

It is huge. It's compiling very fast(some minutes) using -H300m without cabal and -H200m with cabal. GHC it is amazing. This was a valuable help. -- Don't hug that, Hugs ME!
