You don't have to. You can write very fast programs in
Haskell.

I never really finished the article I wanted to write about
this subject, but the fragment I have might be interesting
or even useful nonetheless:

  http://cryp.to/blockio/fast-io.html
  http://cryp.to/blockio/fast-io.lhs

The text uses one of the Language Shootout's tasks as an
example.
