being event-based, while Erlang is process-based.

You can have a look at L<Coro::MP> for a more Erlang-like process model on
top of AEMP and Coro threads.

=item * Erlang sends are synchronous, AEMP sends are asynchronous.

Sending messages in Erlang is synchronous and blocks the process until
a connection has been established and the message sent (and so does not
need a queue that can overflow). AEMP sends return immediately, connection
establishment is handled in the background.

=item * Erlang suffers from silent message loss, AEMP does not.

Erlang implements few guarantees on messages delivery - messages can get
lost without any of the processes realising it (i.e. you send messages a,
b, and c, and the other side only receives messages a and c).

AEMP guarantees (modulo hardware errors) correct ordering, and the
guarantee that after one message is lost, all following ones sent to the
same port are lost as well, until monitoring raises an error, so there are
