I don't think Haskell itself is really the answer.

What was the question?



No one has characterized the right task scheduling outcome.

What tool will give us the the best task scheduling outcome, with appropriate effort?

Node schedules each task to run until it is done or you tell it to do something else. This seems simple and honest. The impact of excessive CPU load is obvious.

Other tools offer automatic task preemption and time slicing between tasks. Once CPU load gets high the impact is much less obvious.
