I'm not an expert in Spray in prod (more Play experience) but there are a few articles you can find on Google on how to monitor an Akka app... You've got Typesafe Console naturally which is specifically dedicated to this and a few tools to add on top of Akka!
Other people might have far better advices than mine on this point!
