Both, with SockJS & Cowboy do not have a client which I could use. SocketIO had a client which could be used in Node.js. However, SocketIO port of Erlang is looking as if it is not in active development.

In our benchmark Node.js was performing 40k msg/sec using SockJS module and around 60k msg/sec when using ZeroMQ. Even PHP gives 400K msg/sec with ZeroMQ (although it has leaking memory <https://github.com/mkoppanen/php-zmq/issues/64>).

It is much better if you use https://github.com/zeromq/erlzmq2 for Erlang<->ZeroMQ integration.
