The M:N threading model with process isolation (all the way up to memory allocation and GC) is Erlang's true differentiator. It really just can't be done anywhere else… hard to bolt something like that on.

you'd be surprised at how efficient the beam vm is, even when you're not using the jit it's a direct threaded model. there's a lot of technical details on the erlang blog over the years www.erlang.org/blog
