* The problem was a race caused by HeartbeatReq sent out, and
the watchee terminated immediately. That caused the RemoteWatcher
peers watching each other without any other watch registered.
It is racy.
* Instead of one-way heartbeats from the side beeing watched I
changed to ping-pong style. That makes the problem go away
and simplifies a lot of things in RemoteWatcher.
* UnreachableNodeJoinsAgain failed because of gated connection
* Removed default test value of retry-gate-closed-for, instead
default from reference.conf is used, i.e. 0s
* deadLetters logging love
* Deprecate all actorFor methods
* resolveActorRef in provider
* Identify auto receive message
* Support ActorPath in actorSelection
* Support remote actor selections
* Additional tests of actor selection
* Update tests (keep most actorFor tests)
* Update samples to use actorSelection
* Updates to documentation
* Migration guide, including motivation
- Moved system messages to their own package.
- All queueing operations are now hidden behind a SystemMessageList value class
- Introduced dual SystemMessageList types to encode the ordering in the type.
- Protects against accidentally missed reverse calls or accidentally reversed lists
- Makes ordering expectations by fields/parameters explicit
- Fixed serialization tests
- Fixes to logging in HierarchyStressSpec
* Rename config akka.event-handlers to akka.loggers
* Rename config akka.event-handler-startup-timeout to
akka.logger-startup-timeout
* Rename JulEventHandler to JavaLogger
* Rename Slf4jEventHandler to Slf4jLogger
* Change all places in tests and docs
* Deprecation, old still works, but with warnings
* Migration guide
* Test for the deprecated event-handler config
The problem was that the “waves of actors” test leaves behind lots of
garbage for the CTD to clean up, and its own
CallingThreadDispatcherQueues.gc() then happens to run when the guardian
creates the top-level actor in the following test case, which takes
longer than 3 seconds to run. Fix it by making the GC interval 100ms
instead of 1sec so that the amount of garbage is limited.
Also, replacing .mapValues(...).filter(...) with
.foldLeft(.newBuilder)(...) makes it twice as fast.
And even more so: unregistering mailboxes upon actor termination removes
the cost nearly completely for the “waves of actors” case.
