As a five plus year veteran of Ocaml and a one year user of Haskell
I would say in general no.

However, Ocaml's strict evaluation makes it easy for someone new to
the language to have a pretty accurate guess about its run time and 
memory usage something which can be difficult in the face of Haskell's
lazy evaluation (not that I have experienced any obvious manifestations
of this myself).
