What are the pain points of deploying Swift on Server applications?

fatalError is a hard trip on the whole process, it can't be isolated. That's essentially the issue being discussed.

It can be potentially, even with language features, but with a bit of work. That what I meant, a bit of hack though of course:

Isolating executions by using distributed actors

If your goal is only to isolate work so it can crash independently then indeed distributed actors is a nice way to achieve it but the cluster library may be a bit over an overkill for it -- it'll actually bind network resources etc. There indeed have been attempts to work on this! The most recent thread was: Runtime extensibility via distributed actors - #22 by mlienert and @mlienert did a great job with his GitHub - martiall/swift-subprocess-distributedactors over there. It uses sub-processe…

And was wondering maybe there are other ideas.
