Hi Anoop, I can't see that there is such a limit, but I might not understand the question completely. The actor processing sequenced messages can of course become a bottleneck and then messages will be queued in its mailbox. Consistent hashing itself finds the matching destination actor by doing a binary search over the destination ActorRef hash values with the hash value of the incoming message.
