Documentation

README

Excerpt

OTP

Choose processes, supervision strategies, and storage for runtime concurrency and fault recovery.

The Iron Law

GENSERVER IS A BOTTLENECK BY DESIGN

A GenServer processes ONE message at a time. Before creating one, ask:

Do I actually need serialized access?
Will this become a throughput bottleneck?
Can reads bypass the GenServer via ETS?

The ETS pattern: GenServer owns ETS table, writes serialize through GenServer, reads bypass it entirely with :read_concurrency.

No exceptions: Don't wrap stateless functions in GenServer. Don't create GenServer "for organization".

GenServer Patterns

Function	Use For
`call/3`	Synchronous requests expecting replies
`cast/2`	Fire-and-forget messages

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
