:) thank you from your answer!
yes, I'm trying to test my actor system with dispatchers, and need both 
heavy and light weight actors for my test ;

Please let me see if I understand your answer correctly, do you mean that 
if I use thread.sleep(5000) inside an actor, the actor does not leave it's 
thread at all? and the thread is idle and jobless for 5 seconds?

:) thanks again
