[erlang-questions] object vs. actor (Re: Massive Numbers of Actors vs. Massive Numbers of Objects vs. ????)

[Raoul Duke]

...ah so one way of looking at it is: when sending a message to an
actor, the actor is going to get thread on which to process the
message, whereas an object either needs you to call into it so it can
get the thread, or you have to do some other more manual work to give
it a thread.
