I also interpret it this way.

If you recall the famous Wide Finder benchmark for parallel programming by Tim Bray, back in 2007 as well [1], those were essentially the results.

Languages like Erlang or JoCaml (Ocaml plus joint calculus), whose models are inherently parallel yield simple and fast solutions.

Other languages too, but they require a lot of expert optimization and ugly code.
