Thanks Rob, good catch. Let's see what Edsko has to say.

This may be have been addressed in the Mio parallel IO manager: http://haskell.cs.yale.edu/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/hask035-voellmy.pdf It will be the default IO manager from GHC 7.8. Indeed, it directly points to Edsko's blog post ( http://www.edsko.net/2013/02/06/performance-problems-with-threaded/ ) in Section 6.4. I don't know whether Edsko's benchmarks have been re-run against GHC HEAD with Mio merged? This would answer whether the 20-30% is still present using Mio. Perhaps knows.

This is not a cloud haskell issue at all, but rather it's a GHC one. Nonetheless we should file a GHC ticket at some point to get it looked at.
