Data.Text.IO.Locale

This module offers much faster locale-aware I/O than Data.Text.IO due to the usage of hPutBuf to write the resulting ByteString all at once, while Data.Text.IO writes characters one at a time, taking the Handle lock each time. Since functions in this module take the lock just once, they can safely be used from multiple threads without fear of messed up output.

Functions in this module require at least twice as much memory as the Text they operate on to output it. For strings more than a half of available RAM in size, this may result in memory exhaustion.

This module is intended to be imported qualified.
