Yet again another threading implementation which ignores the Actor programming model. This must be a systemic failure in both academia for not teaching students about Actors, and the industry for barely talking about Actors. It’s like the old saying, those that dont understand Unix are doomed to reimplement it, poorly. For those readers that haven’t encountered Actors, its more than just a threading model. It allows messaging (important for interaction). An Actor is essentially a class with a std::vector<std::function void(…)> member, and a public messaging function which pushes the message with variable arguments to the queue. The message invokes the scheduler, which sequentially invokes the queued function. It eliminates locks for the client, which is the key benefit. It keeps Actors on a specific thread to use hot caches, unless work

stealing moves the Actor to a free thread. The Actor abstraction is higher level than threads. I’m sure the author will come to realise the benefits of Actors once he has a decade more experience under his belt, after which just like me he’ll be disappointed at academia and the industry for not talking about the benefits of the Actor programming model.
