omniORB finds the object it needs through a hash table. Once it has
found it, it dispatches the right operation by a linear search of the
operation names. That turns out to be faster than obvious hashing
schemes for interfaces with up to 100 operations, but we're thinking
about other possibilities.

Cheers,

Duncan.
