object c中 new和alloc区别

在object-c基础教程这本书里老是可以看见类似下面这种代码，我这小菜鸟就纳闷了，啥区别啊，看上去都一样么。网上找了找，找到一些说法，这里先摘出来。
    className* object = [className new];
or
    className* object = [[className alloc] init];
背景说明，new是较为老式的写法，后来发现只有一个new不好使，才引入了alloc和init这种写法，保留new一是向后兼容，二是很多时候是一种更简单的写法。其实是一样的，new在内部调用的alloc和init.

[className new]基本等同于[[className alloc] init]. 区别只在于alloc分配内存的时候使用了zone，这个zone是个什么东东呢？它是给对象分配内存的时候，把关联的对象分配到一个相邻的内存区域内，以便于调用时消耗很少的代价，提升了程序处理速度.
什么要把alloc 和init 分开?
1. 可以使用多种init方法
2. 显示调用总比隐式调用要好”
如果确实不需要用其他的init函数，比如initWithString, 只是使用 [Nsobject alloc] init] ,那用new的方法更加方便
 * new doesn't support custom initializers (like initWithString)
 * alloc-init is more explicit than new
