Yep. Your're right.

The intersting on send is, that the agent queues the send actions if
you use send. If you use send-off the agent does not stores the
action into a queue.
Yet the code uses "send" predominantly...

Could be, that in the case of pmap a similiar effect takes place and
the agent has less actions which does not need to be stored in his

I'm not exactly sure I understand what you mean...
pmap creates a future for each element of the sequence in turn so each
invocation of the function occurs on a separate thread (cycling over
the number of available cores). In other words pmap assumes the
function mapped across the data is *very costly *and needs its own
thread...In our case the function is not costly at all (sending
actions to an agent returns immediately)...
Weird stuff ...
