I suspect it just needs one big push from a Windows expert. Thread at a glance:

In fact, most of my work can be done within 64M except GHC. I'm afraid, GHC has become a bit more of a hog recently due to lack of attention in the performance department. I hope we'll be able to improve things for later 6.4 patchlevels.

We need a quick solution for 6.4. Should the new Win32 library be removed, and presumably HGL too? They can come back in 6.4.1 or as Cabal packages. Cheers, Simon Loading Comments...
