Hi Guys, I don't understand a couple of things about akka streams: 1. are they based on actors or not? 2. I know I should not execute long running operations in actors (blocking things) because of the actors thread pool will be blocked. Can I do that inside a GraphStage? 3. Why are they 2 ways of defining things like ActorPublisher vs SourceShape? Is there a difference in their execution?
The concrete thing is this: I want to write a database Source/Sink. Should I just create a blocking call inside the onPush/onPull method? Or should I use AsyncCallback?
