It's slower to compile, and might fix things in GHC Haskell, but other
compilers don't all have -O flags, so its generally best to make your
program at least have the right sort of time/space behaviour using
Haskell. If your code doesn't work without -O, then it probably won't
work in Hugs or Yhc.

Thanks
