[omniORB] interprocess comm

[Henrique F Bucher]

Hi Bjorn,

Thank you all for these prompt replies.

I saw somewhere (I can't remember) that someone made a hack into 
omniORB such that latencies were orders of magnitude faster than in 
omniORB3. It seems that this change would make omniORB not fully CORBA 
compliant but, well, there's always a tradeoff.
Did I misunderstand what I've read?

Thanks a lot 

Henrique
