You're going to find that for workloads that require churning through requests, or something similar, that Go or Rust or something similar is simply better. Elixir/Erlang is mostly good for dealing with a lot of persistent state, staying up and running, and reliably getting data from point A to point B. But none of those it does particularly fast, unless you can do it without needing to mutate a data structure/variable, or you can take advantage of the fast binary pattern matching.
