[erlang-questions] About Erlang system performance

[Schneider]

Erlang is a language, which produced byte-code which get' interpreted 
by the Erlang engine. C++ instead generates mashing-code which has on 
the one hand a much better performance, on the other hand,
some disadvantages like incompatibility between different OSs.
