It was pretty fast for its time, but no, its just extreamly outdated today, at least in terms of speed...I love the solo, but its no where near the fastest, not even close.
Its in the pentatonic scale for one thing, a simple scale progression thats often used to make things sound faster and more complex than they really are...Plus he taps, which gives his playing a faster sound than he would if he picked...People like Yngwie and Buckethead can play faster just from picking, and in more complex scales and time signatures too.
