1) It's slow, but no slower than before I believe.
2) What's broken that wasn't before?

I guess I'd do a release with zero publicity:
* people can test it out if they stumble over it
* but we don't attract people to play with it if we know it's bad.


BTW, I'd tend to attribute the slowness to the ghc scheduler/GC; did somebody
test with GHC head?
