[erlang-questions] CPU load of TCP server

[Andrey Tsirulev]

Hello Max,

Well, I cannot agree syntetic tests are so useless as they can show at least 
theoretical limit for my conditions (before I even started to implement real 
business logic).

I'm not sure I understood the opposition of erlang virtual machine to erlang 
environment, could you explain it, please? Now I prepare a release and start 
erlang with a boot script, what is another approach?

Andrey
