 In GHCi, by enabling printing of timing/memory stats after each evaluation
 (`:set +s`), the memory stats is printed in bytes. When this number is
 quite large, it's hard to see – at a glance – how much memory was used.
 It would be nicer if this was printed as “1,200,000 bytes” instead of
 “1200000 bytes” as is the case now.
