Not fast, they are fine for most players. You will get a gap between successive pitches (in other words, legato is out of the question.)

Not sure why you would say that, Christopher. If legato connection is required, the left hand can slide up the string very quickly, and the slide can be covered by the bowing if you don't want it. (In some cases you might possibly want to hear the slide.) It ain't rocket science!
