[erlang-questions] Millions of processes?

[Bill McKeeman]

Raoul, I would not be depressed, there has always been a tradeoff between elegance and performance at the bleeding edge.  On my first computer we taped bits of 5-hole paper tape into our programs because the plug-panel sine and cosine were too slow.  Nothing has changed...  /s/ Bill
