[Haskell] Haskell as a disruptive technology?

Seconded. I think all three of:
specification, prediction and post-morten analysis
of resource consumption of Haskell programs
are largely uncharted territory.
I don't see a widely accepted formal base (a resource calculus)
and that's probably why there is no tool support
(yes, I know about ghc -prof -auto-all).
Ultimately, there should be some refined type system
that allows to express and prove resource consumption guarantees.
