First of all Prolog is usually not AOT compiled rather JITed, secondly regarding Haskell, it is an issue with the skill set of the developer more than anything.

Given expert skills in both Haskell and Rust, Rust is by far the fastest performing language. And if you use idiomatic Haskell the difference is even bigger. E.g. if you use lots of Monad transformers and lazy evaluation.
The optimisation lies between keyboard and chair.

Plus if one lacks the ability to write high performance Haskell code, they definitely aren't experts.
