40,000 erlang nodes in a cluster
lots of specifics about what tweaks they use. Rewatching, it seems like you don't have to really use the modified BEAM except in a few small soft-code (replace OTP/stdlib functionality) where they provide enough information that you could probably write it yourself if you had to, and a lot of the optimizations have been upstreamed into core BEAM -- WA is a pretty good citizen of the ecosystem.
