(on by default)
In the ghc-6.6 era the bytestring modules were included in the base package.
This package provides a pure interface for compressing and
decompressing streams of data represented as lazy
ByteStrings. It uses the zlib C library so it has high
performance. It supports the "zlib", "gzip" and "raw"
compression formats.
It provides a convenient high level API suitable for most tasks and for the few cases where more control is needed it provides access to the full zlib feature set.
