Erlang's speciality is lots of concurrent users.
We are planning to provide a native COMET mechanism, so clients can be
notified as soon as documents they are interested are updated or
created. The enhancements are for selective and near real-time
replication features we are planning, but they will be useful for
things like this too.

some form of COMET or even the long request pattern to improve your
performance.
Yes, but we are serving many concurrent users, so I don't want to hold
a persistence connection from the server to client. (we are using
Apache2/pre_fork, mod_php)
As since our polling interval is adaptive, is it quite easy to scale
by adding servers currently.
