I have experienced the opposite quite a number of times.
In some cases, Haskell's features (polymorphism, monads) allowed me to optimize code in a modular way, that is by adding a small amount of code (a new monad), rather than by rewriting lots of code. The resulting program had similar speed to C++ program.
it was because C++ program was not optimized at maximum, yes? :) we are saying about PGP, are you believe that its code isn't yet optimized? -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com
