Hi Ana, 1. Elm is fast because it use a very fast implementation of a virtual dom. 2. Elm compiler outputs JavaScript so all the low level memory concerns are handled by the JavaScript VM, not by Elm 3. No, Cmds do not influence the purity of Elm. If a function returns Cmds, it will always return the same Cmds. Executing those Cmds might lead to different results BUT that's a different concern.
