Apparently there have been some nice improvements to ForkJoin:

...This also greatly improves throughput when all tasks are async and submitted 
to the pool rather than forked, which becomes a reasonable way to structure 
actor frameworks, as well as many plain services that you might otherwise use 
ThreadPoolExecutor for.
These improvements also lead to a less hostile stance about about submitting 
possibly-blocking tasks.


These improvements are available now in the jsr166 package 
<http://gee.cs.oswego.edu/dl/concurrency-interest/index.html>. 

Should agents now use a ForkJoinPool?
