Can someone steer me to some good benchmarks, discussions of perf characteristics and gotchas of the BEAM? My search-fu is weak and I'm not finding the sort of content I'm after.

I'm trying to learn Elixir and being a systems thinker so before I (can) get too comfortable I'm gonna want to dive into origin stories to build up my holistic map of why things are the way they are, what can be done and what can't be done, and understanding bottlenecks in the BEAM seems like it's gonna have to be part of that (the way I studied JVM tech documentation when I did perf and architecture work in Java)
