Is Haskell a good fit for your hybrid category, similar to go and ocaml, considering it also compiles to native?

I haven't heard of Haskell being used for the kind of "high level" systems programming that go is used for.

In my opinion, as a professional haskell developer, it is too hard to reason about the runtime space usage of Haskell programs to ever recommend Haskell as a "systems programming language". Haskell would be great for writing a DSL for generating such code though.
