Feature Request: Typeclass API to work with Text, ByteString and other string-likes #26

Open ozataman opened 10 years ago

ozataman commented 10 years ago

The main concern here is speed and efficiency. Many performance-critical production scenarios should not be working with String. Convenience is a secondary concern.

Could there be any interest in moving to a typeclassed API that natively implements the most efficient method to push log strings of each type?

:+1: , came here to ask for this. At least some kind of Text support would be great.
