You might want to take a look at e.g., Scala and how it implements actors on the JVM.

It's basically doing a MxN actor to thread-pool scheduling.

The dispacter is probably a bottleneck, looking at the paper http://lamp.epfl.ch/~phaller/doc/haller07actorsunify.pdf I can't really tell how it's implemented.

How does the Scala run queue work? eg have a look at the Erlang article I linked to in my first post.
