Hi list,
I'm developing a solution for monitoring akka applications with 
rxjava-scala: http://github.com/vigdorchik/rxmon
The application should contain actor(s), that should periodically send 
statistics to the monitor actor. To achieve best performance I want raw 
data of primitive numeric type be sent.
However what I see is that the boxed values are received.

import akka.actor._
import scala.reflect.ClassTag

val boxedTag = ClassTag(classOf[java.lang.Integer])

class Test extends Actor {
  def receive = {
    case ClassTag.Int(_) => println("unboxed")
    case boxedTag(_) => println("boxed")
  }
}

val s = new ActorSystem("system")

val t = s.actorOf(Props(new Test), "test")

t ! 77 // prints boxed

So my questions are:
a) is it akka boxing the value?
b) is it possible to somehow send unboxed values?

Thank you,
Eugene.
