There is quite some variance, and no speedup visible yet. I should look at the Core generated by the Sum example to understand whether it has improved at all. See also #309.

[turion]

This PR alone cannot give the speedups I'm hoping for, because clock erasure of SNs still doesn't happen. Only in combination with #348 I'll be able to get the full speedup I'm hoping for.

[turion]

#349 is helpful because it adds a more realistic benchmark where initClock is not inlined yet because it contains an IO action.
