You do have to program in a parallel Yes, of course, I've been writing multi-threaded and SMP programs all the time using C++ but then a C/C++ implementation would still beat the Haskell one regarding raw performance :) I might be easier to do in Haskell though, although I guess the "easier" (like software transactional memory) also comes with a price.
