Comment (by niteria):

 It's enough to put `-fprof-auto-top` just on `Lens.hs`.

 Removing `{-# INLINE lens #-}` fixes exponential behavior.

 Interestingly I wasn't able to put enough `{-# SCC #-}` annotations to get
 the same effect as `-fprof-auto-top`. No matter how I try I can't put them
 on a class method, but perhaps I'm doing something wrong.
