I use the config someone posted above

// Create an Akka system
        ActorSystem system = ActorSystem.create("PiSystem", 
ConfigFactory.parseString(
                "akka {\n" +
                        "  actor.default-dispatcher {\n" +
                        "      fork-join-executor {\n" +
                        "        parallelism-min = 2\n" +
                        "        parallelism-factor = 0.4\n" +
                        "        parallelism-max = 16\n" +
                        "      }\n" +
                        "      throughput = 1000\n" +
                        "  }\n" +
                        "\n" +
                        "  log-dead-letters = off\n" +
                        "\n" +
                        "  actor.default-mailbox {\n" +
                        "    mailbox-type = 
\"akka.dispatch.SingleConsumerOnlyUnboundedMailbox\"\n" +
                        "  }\n" +
                        "}"
        )
        );

Yes, however the "cut corners" were not that massive in impact. CPU 
architecture matters (surprise). Don't get obsessed with the prototype, you 
know as I know we are living in a marketing driven world, so in order to 
evaluate products I always create a quick prototype to have a baseline to 
compare with. It frequently happens, that hyped products turn out to be 
pretty lame (e.g. like being 5 times slower). I usually recheck then if I 
omitted something important in the prototype and do a quick profile on the 
product. And in many cases i find some "Character c ..; out.write( 
c.toString().toByteArray() )" which means "stop-evaluating" ;-).

I'd say Akka is pretty close to what's possible (general purpose) on the 
JVM. I'd suspect <5-10% potential for application-specific optimization. 
That's good ! I am still a bit puzzled regarding proxy dispatch of typed 
actors (u know: programmers want code completion ;-) ), well just my gut ..
