What’s up with the last paragraph? Nobody is complaining because the BEAM is good enough for the typical use case?

- dnautics 5mo agobecause you're not reaching for elixir when you need performance. btw we do sometimes bitch about performance :)
- nesarkvechnep 5mo agoI asked because I do it sometimes too.
- abrookewood 5mo agoBut then we have ports/NIFs etc that shell out to Rust & Zig ...
- nesarkvechnep 5mo agoNot a silver bullet. There are also C nodes but they’re used even less.
- dnautics 5mo ago> NIFs that shell to zig I'm aware
- givemeethekeys 5mo agoI meant to point out that, for the use-cases where functional languages are used - production performance seems very acceptable, compared to having to micromanage memory allocation.
