As documentation (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/text-2.0/docs/Data-Text-IO.html#v:readFile) explains,
T.readFile
is almost always a mistake. It's highly unlikely that files we try to read withT.readFile
are in a locale encoding and not in UTF-8. Moreover, withtext-2.0
fmap T.decodeUtf8 . BS.readFile
is up to 10x faster thanT.readFile
.
