# Overview
|
|
|
|
This is a simple actor implementation (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actor_model).
|
|
|
|
Actor is implemented as a single thread with single producer/consumer queue as input. You can think of it as a single thread threadpool
|
|
|
|
If you need concurrency, consider allocating more than one actor.

# Thread safety
|
|
|
|
There is two ways to ensure thread safety between two actors
|
|
- Use core affinity to set both actor to run on the same core.
|
|
- Use data separation, like in testcase thread_safety_with_actor_specific_data
