Comment (by tdammers):

 More data! https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/attachment/ticket/7258/ghc-
 large-record-types-cmm-size.png shows C-- code size growth as the number
 of fields grows for the same generated examples as in the other graphs.
 getline and getline-appl generate the exact same C--, so there's no point
 including both in the graph; they are the only ones that grow linearly
 among the "interesting" examples.
