 Currently GHC uses a lot of memory to build a relatively small module and
 causes my CI to fail due to there being a 4G memory limit.

 The source code can be found here:

 https://github.com/haskell-works/hw-
 json/tree/73368cee21dc72eedd5291ba689f9abf10e7fcd2

 The problem module is here:

 https://github.com/haskell-works/hw-
 json/blob/73368cee21dc72eedd5291ba689f9abf10e7fcd2/test/HaskellWorks/Data/Json/Backend/Standard/Succinct/CursorSpec.hs

 The build output follows:

 {{{
