Hi Ryan,

I appreciate the response and look forward to seeing 2i rock harder
than ever before with all the changes you guys are pushing in.

I did make a mistake in my benchmark, and in reality it was closer to
70 req/s that I was getting across my concurrent erlang benchmark
workers.

HTTP got me in to the 350 - 400 req/s range which is significantly
better, using ab -n 1000 -c 10

Looking forward to seeing 2i be very fast!

-Tom
