Elixir + Phoenix is no faster than CRuby + Sequel/Roda today.
When Elixir was started the common Ruby version was 1.8, a tree walking interpreter with no parallelism. Today's Ruby is nothing like that.
- pdimitar 8y agoCould be. I abandoned Rails 2-3 years ago and haven't looked back since. Even then migrating a project to Ruby 2.3 was a huge pain due to the immutable strings feature. It was one of the things that made me throw my hands in the air. But I almost haven't seen a Rails project using Sequel for 6 years of working with it. 99% of the projects use ActiveRecord.
