The main problem is that the current implementation of actors in Scala suffers from known memory leaks and performance problems - problems that are completely addressed by Akka, which is why they're going to incorporate it and replace the current implementation. Our choices at World Singles were: migrate to Akka, wait for Scala 2.10 (which is when I think Akka will be folded in). Neither were appealing solutions. Migrating to Clojure was less work and more timely (for us). -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ World Singles, LLC. -- http://worldsingles.com/ Railo Technologies, Inc. -- http://www.getrailo.com/ "Perfection is the enemy of the good." -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
