Haskell can be made very fast. The problem is that at least for me, performance is often quite non-intuitive. As in, make tiny change to program, it is now a hundred times slower. Then you get to hunt down the reason why it's now doing too much work/ why stream fusion isn't working anymore/why it's leaking so much space/etc for hours.

I enjoy writing Haskell for small hobby projects, but I doubt I would choose it for real work now that F# and Rust exist.
