I've been reading up on akka persistence and have a few questions, if I may:

1. What is the problem persistence is meant to solve? Is it just to be able 
to recover actors after an error or crash or are there uses beyond that? 
The Scala Days 2014 talk hinted at some kind of link between persistence 
and queries that I didn't quite get. 

2. Can or should persistence be used to replace at least part of a 
traditional database store?

3. What algorithm do people use to decide when (or if) to store snapshots? 
I imagine a journal could get very large in a busy system.

Thanks!

Curtis
