[erlang-questions] Updating Myths of Erlang Performance

[James Hague]

I'd call these dead:
2.7  Myth: BEAM is a Stack-Based Byte-Code Virtual Machine (and Therefore
Slow)
2.8  Myth: Use "_" to Speed Up Your Program When a Variable is Not Used

I agree with Joe that the one about string processing should be expanded.
"No string type" is the issue that comes up more frequently.
