What would help me the most in understanding actors is a practical
example that clearly shows how the actor system can be used to create
real-world massively scalable systems. What would be nice is a
complete, realistic program, not too short but not too long, either,
that I can compile and run involving something, say, network-related,
that I can try out on my home machine and play around with.

Apparently a tutorial of some kind is underway on the actors library
and I eagerly await it.
