According to this page, compactstring is obsolete.

http://hackage.haskell.org/package/compact-string

The advice given there is to switch to text. The text library is heavily optimized and part of the standard Haskell platform now. Is converting a reasonable change or is there a compelling reason to stay with compactstring?
