That's really interesting --- how come Elixir does so well? I thought that the BEAM VM was good for concurrency and reliable systems, but wasn't so great at raw number crunching compared to the JVM and compiled code?

it depends on the number crunching. All things considered, I've usually been impressed, working with it. it's also a monster at processing binary data streams via pattern matching.

it's web framework benchmark there is no number crunching
