not yet, but it will be soon, and with the same causality guarantee

Isn't that going to kill performance (and possibly even kill the system, in the event of partial netsplits or similar)?

That sounds... interesting. So if A1 is on a different segment, but has a faster link (less congestion?) to A3, than A2, even if it takes 1000t time to send the first message from A1 to A2, and only 10t+t time = 11t time to send a message, from A1 to A3, and from A3 to A2 -- the plan is to guarantee ordering of messages m1, m3 at A2 (delaying m1 at least 989t)?

How will Pony achieve this in a distributed context? Isn't this essentially asking for exactly-once delivery?

How do you intend to achieve this?
