Yes, but due to lazy-evaluation that won't happen until you do something with the sorted list. Your performance may just blow up in some seemingly unrelated place. My biggest problem with Haskell is how GC and lazy-evaluation makes it very difficult to reason about what the hardware is actually doing at a given point. I know there ways to inspect and control it, but I've found myself preferring languages that have simpler mental models.
