This is not mentioned in the article, but since it has performance implications for a ton of BEAM applications, it's probably relevant: OTP 27 will also include a new builtin JSON module, and I did a quick and dirty benchmark [1] of it against Elixir's (excellent) Jason library. It seems like it'll be a pretty good performance win for BEAM applications that work with JSON.

Coincidentally I started playing around with CouchDB today. I wonder if this will have much of an impact on its performance.

How do these compare with jiffy?

  There are more benchmarks and quite a bit more detail here: https://github.com/erlang/otp/pull/8111 https://github.com/erlang/otp/pull/8111

    Belated thanks, this was very interesting! I'm legitimately surprised with their performance achievements there.

>handle errors with exceptions What's the logic behind this?

  I don't know. I'm sure there is a design reason for it, but I haven't been able to find it in any of the public discussion.
