Well, Akka did it on top of JVM: https://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/typed/fault-tolerance.... Can't say about its limitations though. |

I undrstand, everything concurrency is definitely not easy to implement in "User land" and is something you want good primitives for – why I am also amaxed over this project as they must have embedded that functionality (the scheduler) in the executable (Which they also say they did).

Akka does not seem to claim that they build a new runtime for BEAM languages?
