[erlang-questions] Is there a lomit on erlang vm nodes connection speed

[Dror Mein]

the message size will be around 100 bytes, but basically - that's what I want, yeah. when I use more servers, this bandwidth spreads between them.

It only goes up to 300Mbps because you are sending a huge number of very small messages, between two processes over a single TCP connection.
