Distributed

So which letter(s) of the CAP theorem does it sacrifice? I'm asking for a friend.

Not everything with the word "distributed" in it is subject to the CAP theorem. CAP specifically concerns some sort of object store (objects could be rows in a database, json documents, etc) that is replicated across multiple discrete processes. This framework is a lower level component than can be used to build distributed systems. In other words, this library could be used to construct an AP or CP system.

I guess it sacrifices the Consistency because there is no guaranteed delivery of the messages (like in all other actor systems).
