Slated for release in OTP 24 I think. This covers the spproach they use: https://youtu.be/lM7UV95Rpyo

Most interesting take-aways from benchmarks are some cases where RabbitMQ processes 30-50% more messages per second. And where a native Erlang JSON library beat NIF C library in some specific tests. The PR link covers this info.

https://github.com/erlang/otp/pull/2745 may be what you're after.
