If you read the article closely you will notice that the Erlang VMs were started without SMP support enabled; everything was single-core. If you turned on Erlang SMP support then the comparison would be even more lop-sided than the example presented in the OP. In real life a hardware load balancer in front of a pool of Erlang servers would be even better :)
