Hi Somak, this seems like an Actor isn't keeping pace with its incoming messages. You can try to follow references from the mail box to the actor instance to find out which actor it is. As you are talking about log message my guess would be that your logging actor is too slow writing logs to disk. You may also look at some stack traces at runtime which may turn up what this actor is doing.
