You mean scale like Twitter and LinkedIn?
Maybe that's why they still lose money hand over fist,
especially Twitter, because of all the extra servers they have
to buy. :p By comparison, Whatsapp was able to put millions of
users on a server with erlang and become profitable with much
less revenue:

I don't really understand how you can simultaneously advertise
Erlang and bash Java for inefficiency. I think the core
concurrency model in Erlang is really great, and it scales
horizontally to great effect, but it's a bear to do TCP work in
and is far less efficient than Java, let alone C++.
