Heap profiling

Hi,

I really like the profiling options in GHC, but I wonder if there's
any good way of improving heap profiling speed?  I've tried using -i
to reduce the number of measurements, but it didn't seem to help a
lot.  

I see an order of magnitude speed degradation with heap profiling,
which is slightly annoying, since it is with large runs heap
consumption starts to become troublesome :-)

Any tricks I ought to know about?
