 Why not?  There's nothing stopping you from choosing any Haskell  
 compiler you like.  If jhc gives you the performance you need √ use it.

i don't need jhc speed, i just warn people that believes Don tales. to
the best of my knowledge, jhc is not very practical at the moment, but
it's better to ask John about current state-of-the-art

Oh, okay then... if you don't need the speed, stop complaining.

Bye.

 Heh. He probably meant something more like jhc is not a production
 compiler which is true for a lot of projects. For projects of
 substantial size or that require many extensions, jhc falls somewhat
 short. It is getting better though. Of course, help is always
 appreciated. :)

what is substantial size? can jhc be used for video codec, i.e.
probably no extensions - just raw computations, and thousands or tens
of thousands LOCs?
