They are operating in very different ways, and for certain high load usage you might notice some better performance of one or the other. That must be measured for the application specific scenario. However, I can't see a compelling reason to use SmallestMailboxPool. Should we remove it? Thoughts, anyone else? One thing that BalancingPool can't handle (in intended way) is sending Broadcast message to all routees.
