Everyone thinks Elixir is slow until they use it and then realise throughput is often more important than absolute performance.

- FpUser 7y agoAs I said I do not know much about Elixir so yo be the judge. I do however have doubts about throughput of well designed code running on VM being faster then that of native. My understanding is that on Erlang VM this throughput is achieved by using async and message passing patterns backed up by thread pools inside. All perfectly available for "low level" languages as well.
- andy_ppp 7y agoI understand, my preference is Elixir but while fast enough and scalable, it is a memory and cpu hog.
