Thanks for that summary.

I'm working on a system where references can be passed around at runtime. Can references in Pony be passed around at runtime between threads?

I'm working on ideas such as:

- all threads reading or writing at the same time. This is how I think GPUs work.

- I am working how to parallelise the bank transfer problem. You have bank accounts of money and want to transfer money between them but never deduct below 0. So you need consistency on an accounts balance. I was looking at sharding the data. I want to get more than 1 million transfers a second.

This article is good. https://travisdowns.github.io/blog/2020/07/06/concurrency-co...
