I'm not that versed in Haskell myself, but is this really the case? I would think that expectations for low level optimization and general code are different.

I'm not that versed in Haskell myself, but is this really the case? I would think that expectations for low level optimization and general code are different.
Though, I suppose you could then say that if the rules are different for low level optimization, they may as well have imported an external library written in Rust.
- monocasa 8y agoOptimized Rust feels more idiomatic at least.
- LeanderK 8y agobut I don't think it's a suprise, since rust is made to be fast while haskell is made to be beautiful (for some sense of beautiful)
- mseri 8y agoThey explain in the post that they did consider it but decided to avoid it due to the way the FFI and Gc interact (requiring the string to be copied)
