Thanks - appreciate the reply (and the other helpful replies here too). I've done a fair bit of threaded / async stuff in Python / C / JS - sounds like BEAM processes are more baked into the language & runtime and encouraged as an architectural style, rather than an added complexity you bargain with when you hit a single-threaded performance wall. Interested to do a deeper dive on it sometime.
