Re: newbie questions (read, etc., with Data.ByteString.Lazy.Char8)

the problem is that using readInt is actually _as slow_, at least using my test script :-((

Never unpack a bytestring.

   import qualified Data.ByteString.Lazy.Char8 as S

   main = print . go 0 =<< S.getContents
     where
       go n s = case S.readInt s of
                       Nothing     -> n
                       Just (k,t)  -> go (n+k) (S.tail t)

Assuming you're reading int, integers or doubles.
