Had to read that twice. Was pretty sure he meant "RakNet" the first time ;)
Oh, and just gonna put this out there: http://benchmarksgame.alioth.debian.org/u64q/compare.php?lan...

and Erlang is certainly a valid platform for servers, so as usual benchmarks are just benchmarks... would be interesting to see if typed racked made a difference in these tests -- although I'm not sure if performance is the main focus of typed racked (as opposed to just type safety).
And indeed, of the ten benchmarks, four of them are singlecore racket vs quadcore Go. Single core-comparison is much less dramatic, though Racket is still slower.
