The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

[ANNOUNCE] GHC 9.2.1-rc1 is now available!
Check out unboxed. I think that could be a good starting point. I recently updated it to the 9.2.1 alpha here: https://github.com/noughtmare/unboxed/commit/b6338e68540a2c62a6aae6ded0dcdc3b83106916. I should check again if the this issue is fixed in this rc.

Principles of Programming Languages - Robert Harper
I tried it out and it is really not usable yet unfortunately. There are several problems. I think the main issue is that you need two versions of all functions and data types. And currently classes like Num are not levity-polymorphic (there is a proposal about this), so you can't use + to add two "real" inductive peano naturals. One problem with making type classes levity-polymorphic is that top-level bindings can't be levity-polymorphic, so mempty cannot be levity-polymorphic. A workaround is to use a type class to levitate levity-polymorphic variables, but that has disadvantages too. Levitated values are not shared and must be recomputed at every call site.

How can Haskell programmers tolerate Space Leaks?
One time I actually gathered my resolve and asked him to describe a package. Nothing happened.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing unboxed and traced you can also consider the following projects:
bytestring - An efficient compact, immutable byte string type (both strict and lazy) suitable for binary or 8-bit character data.
