 1) Compile the following code, in GHC 6.10.1 or 6.8.3 on Windows XP.

 2) Don't type anything, just bring up the task manager and wait.

 3) Watch as the memory usage climbs, slowly, and then with increasing
 vigor.

 4) If you start typing things, the memory usage will cease climbing.

 {{{
 main = do
  forever $ do
          x <- hGetLine stdin
          putStrLn x
 }}}
