and by others.
The book does make a comparison to C++ but is Object C based.
And the NeXT box may be slower but it writes a _lot_ of the 
interface code for you.  It programs faster.  The users ( programmers )
I talked with were enthusiastic about it.  It's hard to separate
I/O access speed and message passing overhead.
( You want speed ? Don't multiprocess.  ;-)  )
