The idea, and the benchmarks, are very promising! I'd love to contribute to making this more widely usable. Is there a roadmap, or summary of things needed?

My first attempt was to get a ghc-nix-built package packageable in nix. By which I mean something like so. Running with cabal build -w works well, but the nixpkgs-test default.nix linked seems to have bit-rotten, mostly due issues arising from sandboxing. I noticed a few places seem to assume ghc-nix is running outside of a sandbox (for instance nixBuildTool, which fetches dependencies at runtime rather than being set up to already have them). I'm now wondering whether my initial goal matches where the project is going, so thought I'd ask.

But in general, am happy to help however makes sense!
