%X Although concurrency is generally perceived to be a hard
   subject, it can in fact be very simple, provided that the
   underlying model is simple. The occam\-pi parallel
   processing language provides such a simple yet powerful
   concurrency model that is based on CSP and the pi\-calculus.
   This paper presents pony, the occam\-pi Network Environment.
   occam\-pi and pony provide a new, unified, concurrency model
   that bridges inter\- and intra\-processor concurrency. This
   enables the development of distributed applications in a
   transparent, dynamic and highly scalable way. The first part
   of this paper discusses the philosophy behind pony, explains
   how it is used, and gives a brief overview of its
   implementation. The second part evaluates pony\[rs]s
   performance by presenting a number of benchmarks.
