Comment (by conal):

 Thanks for the explanation, Simon. The eta-expansion policy sounds very
 sensible to me, and now I understand that more expensive computations will
 not get pushed under lambdas. If GHC's cost model turns out not to fit my
 use, I can add some simple post-GHC transformations on the representation
 I use for generating GPU code.
