A very effective friend of mine once said if your messages are perfect you're spending the oo much time on them.

If you write for a living, then one relevant metric is how quickly you type with no errors (although perhaps a better metric would be how quickly you get error-free work product out, including revisions). If you're talking about who can send text messages to another person faster, then the "typos included" metric makes more sense.
