[Haskell-beginners] tutorials on space complexity?

[Bob Ippolito]

I found the beginning of Parallel and Concurrent Programming in Haskell
particularly enlightening:
http://chimera.labs.oreilly.com/books/1230000000929/ch02.html#sec_par-eval-whnf

After reading that, Haskell's evaluation strategy finally clicked for me.
Now I can much more easily spot and fix these sorts of errors before even
running them for the most part.
