Yeah, can confirm, I did a ton of Elixir work in the ETL space and it's amazingly well-suited for it. If you don't get an OCD over the fact that it obviously can't work as fast as Rust (realistically it's likely anywhere from 30x to 100x slower even) then the ergonomic and intuitive syntax combined with the transparent parallelism create an all-around win.

So far I've never regretted using Elixir for ETL, but I do confess that for two projects I was mighty tempted to try a rewrite in Rust because ingesting several dozens of billions of records in a dynamic language isn't exactly fast.

But, again, the ergonomics trump everything else 99% of the time for me. Plus for one-off ingestion tasks nobody cares if it takes 30 minutes or the whole night.
