Elixir/Erlang are surely slower but the BEAM is a fantastic runtime and compensates with fault-tolerance and predictable performance. I know I prefer my server to be as responsive at 1 million connections as at 1 hundred.


How much slower though, I think we’re talking everyone getting the message in a Phoenix channel in < 100ms?
