Probably BeamVM, giving you better options for scaling, abstracting away machine borders and lightweight processes.

BeamVM is much worse than the JVM in the raw computing performances department.

As far as I know, people in the Erlang world tend to use NIFs for computation heavy tasks: http://erlang.org/doc/tutorial/nif.html However, I have not done that myself, so I cannot tell from experience how that works.
