What happens when there are no messages on the queue for a given actor?
1 comments

An actor does not have a queue; that's again the whole point I already made: it's event-driven, things are decoupled and the actor is not aware of how control flow happens.

Regardless, when the queue which exists and is per-thread is empty, the program terminates.
