Currently only strict ByteStrings are supported. For large payloads, a conduit interface would be awesome. Alternatives include lazy ByteStrings (which are somewhat deprecated afaict) or the more generic ByteArray(Access) interface that supports various sources of bytes.

Also, It'd be nice to have lazy bytestrings instead of strict ones for the stream and xor functions at https://hackage.haskell.org/package/saltine-0.1.0.0/docs/Crypto-Saltine-Core-Stream.html#v:stream =)

Can you elaborate and explain in which modules or functions you would primarily want to use that?
