Virding's First Rule of Programming:

Any sufficiently complicated concurrent program in another language contains an ad hoc informally-specified bug-ridden slow implementation of half of Erlang.

That's funny, considering that the reason I'm doing concurrent programming in "another language" is due to Erlang's poor performance.

Erlang is not a panacea. It excels as a middle layer, one that orchestrates work. It's not a tool to perform intensive calculations.
