I have to say that this is greatly overstating things. I've used
forwarding for all sorts of real work. What you don't want to do is
put it into a situation where it needs to execute hundreds of
thousands of times a second. But there are a lot of situations which
qualify as "actual work" for which that does not apply.

20us is slow when compared to a normal message send. It's
instantaneous when compared to, say, writing a file to disk. Whether
it's "too slow" depends entirely on what you need.
