I've just finished implementing a haskell version of the xxHash algorithm,
which is documented briefly here (mostly in code):

https://code.google.com/p/xxhash/

The haskell version is *almost* as fast as C and allows the generation of a
better quality checksum than adler32, in less time.

Benchmarks are here:

Critique welcome!
