    Description

      Updating erlang will fix some issues (there's at least one windows issue that states that we're waiting for R16).

      R16 can also have 64-bit erlang VM on windows which might be somewhat important for use-cases that "require" erlang to have tons of memory (32-bit vm dies at about 2 gigs of memory eaten on windows).

      R1603 also has +MMscs (supercarrier something...) which might be useful for memory tuning.

      There's however known downsides (at least):

      • I think we've had data that R15 and R16 is slower on our use-cases
      • R16's ssl is quite broken. At least with it's implementation of elliptic curves DH exchange. Might be fixable by disabling it.
