you are correct that there is a difference between concurrency and
massive concurrency. one is easier than the other.
i think that we want to have the benchmark where we emphasis differences
between languages. if we can test some thing 2 ways, i think we should
choose the more difficult way, to get bigger differences.
why be gentle :-)
