Has Haskell ever been used for something where the execution speed is 
actually important? :-)

If Haskell had a decent IDE and easy documented access to the rest of 
the system I might consider using it.  But then F# exists already and I 
haven't paid much attention to that so far...

I think you need to be working with very specific types of problems to 
warrant using Haskell, which isn't to say nobody uses it.
