I've used both, if anything Haskell is a little faster.

Thank you for attacking that misconception. Haskell is, at this point, a very practical language, and becoming increasingly that way over time as it proves to have the best enforcement model for the functional style among the options out there. For good and bad, we're not in the 1990s anymore.
