i think chris' considers rugby beeing no option as it is not able to
accept a concurrent call while it is processing one.
250 echo (!!!) calls / sec might be fine, but as soon as the funcs
beeing called actually do something, you'll never get there ;)
consider the following: we have two clients, let's call the peter and
carla and we have a server (a rugby server) which exports a func
called 'long-running-func'. to produce a result, this func takes 10
secs at average.
peter calls long-running-func on server.
1 sec later, carla tries to call long-running-func on server too, but
rugby is not able to accept calls in this stage.
carla has to wait the average 10 seconds until peter's call finished.
only then her call gets processed!
chris' original question:

the concurrent is the key!
[maarten, no offense intended! i don't want to imply that this
behaviour is rugby's fault]
