Actix is trying to be a decent actor system for Rust, but I haven’t dug into it enough to know how it would compare to OTP.

Also, you should take a big look at the Pony language if you haven’t yet. It’s much earlier days than Rust, but comes from people who know and love Erlang.

I’ve heard about it Actix. For it to compare with OTP, you’d presumably need a lot more tools for dealing with supervisor trees. For example if you customized the `try!` macro to "kill" an actix actor and let a supervisor restart it. That’d be more OTP like.
