Parallelism is concurrency (+maybe a little SIMD) done for speed's sake. Haskell is by far the best programming experience I've ever had (all aspects included), and it's damn fast. It's just not C/C++/Rust fast in nearly all cases. Having said that, going functional for 'parallelism advantage' (speed) is a fool's errand (for now). The same thing is said about how incredibly fast JIT has become. (But AOT is faster!) Want speed? C/C++/Rust.
