[darcs-devel] [issue1007] use lazy bytestring in darcs

[Eric Kow]

New submission from Eric Kow <eric.kow at gmail.com>:

Another fun project to work on.  Experiment with the use of lazy
bytestrings in darcs, especially now that we are using bytestrings
already.

Also, as Petr Ročkai noticed on IRC:
  mornfall: mmapFileByteStringLazy oh wow.
  mornfall: Maps region of file and returns it as
    Data.ByteString.Lazy.ByteString. File is mapped in in ReadOnly mode. See
  mmapFilePtrLazy for details. Chunks are mapped in on demand.
  mornfall: And it works on windows.
  mornfall: And the lazy zlib binding. Mmm.
