I've heard it's hard to contain a long-running Haskell application in
a finite amount of memory, but this is probably not a problem if your
web site sleeps 0.001% of the time (like XMonad), or you can restart
it every once in a while without anyone noticing.
Has anyone tried Yi?

I noticed that even simple WX demos like "Layout" are linked
dynamically against 59 libraries on Linux. This would make
distributing the binaries a nightmare. Is there a simple way to make a
(mostly) statically linked binary?

The benchmark isn't using the native code generator, it compiles via
C, as I understand.

Not that this is a very good benchmark, but I compiled the nearly
equivalent C and Haskell (1st, recursive version) programs from this

I've been following with interest the recent discussions on reddit
about the extremely slow hash tables in Haskell compared to F# and
OCaml, and as I understood it, this performance problem is caused by
GC not liking mutable arrays

My general null hypothesis is, as Alec Baldwin put it, that a loser is

I'm still learning Haskell and also evaluating whether I want to use

It seems like a fascinating language so far (although I don't know if
laziness will be a detriment later for me eventually), but I'm a bit

If avoiding success at all costs is the goal, wouldn't having a cool

I noticed that on Programming Reddit, where I lurk, there is a big
discussion about the disconnect between how much Haskell is advocated
there and the number of applications written in it.

Is there a way to do binary serialization of Haskell values (in GHC,
at least)? If you propose a method, what are its type safety and
portability properties?
