> Not really Elixir, but I'm jazzed about Erlang/OTP 24 JIT support for better performance.

I'm really interested to see how the JIT effects our app. I've seen some reports suggesting that a 20% bump in speed isn't unreasonable to expect.

Haven't had a chance to observe a lot of runtime stats yet but I can tell you that my compile times in big projects fell down dramatically with Erlang/OTP 24.0, at times with 35%.
Havent's measured by myself but I'd expect performance noticeable improvement for GraphQL apps that use Absinthe, since significant time is spent on parsing, validating and serializing data around resolvers.
