yes I agree that IPC is faster than vanilla IIOP.But
there are ways by which we can increase the
performance.We can make the generated code optimized
for ORBIT and find some more ways.
By the way Elliot Lee, the instigator of the ORBit
project, thinks that he can, without violating the
CORBA spec, get the cost of a CORBA call darn close to
that of a standard library call, where a local
implementation of the requested service is
available.
Although he talks this in the context of GNOME apps +
corba in GNOME and on linux but I am sure that this
will be helpful in some way to us.......especially
considering that the HURD servers run in user space.
