You do know that developers deploy things to the cloud.
And on AWS there are instance types with 448 VCPUs [1] and in fact 128 VCPUs is a very common instance type. In fact with the growth of Kubernetes these larger configurations are increasingly popular because it's more cost efficient to pack the containers into fewer/larger nodes.
Also would add that Scala is in my opinion by far the best language for writing safe, highly concurrent code when you pair it with frameworks like ZIO. [2]

- detaro 4y ago> In fact with the growth of Kubernetes these larger configurations are increasingly popular because it's more cost efficient to pack the containers into fewer/larger nodes. That kind of is defeating your argument though: If people pack many containers on large boxes, the individual container probably is not making use of the possible parallelization across all cores.
- threeseed 4y agoMerely pointing out that it's a common instance type. If you have an app that runs 24/7 at 100% bursting across all cores then Kubernetes will simply schedule a single container on that instance.
