Inhibiting the specialiser?

Is there a GHC flag for inhibiting the specializer (but not all
optimizations)? I'm seeing huge output from the Specialise phase killed at
4GB and growing. The output starts as follows:

Result size of Specialise
  = {terms: 29,639, types: 10,921,552, coercions: 4,425,185}

Sounds like a lot to me. Is it?. I get this behavior with -O2 and with -O.
