You can do assembler insertions in Ada. The relation must be same. Ada design never considered premature, close-to-hardware optimization as a priority. I don't see why in case of DB, it should be any otherwise. Further I doubt very much that performance problems could be imposed by bindings. Usually such problems have algorithmic nature. I don't see how reasonably designed DB bindings would force you to choose a wrong algorithm... -- Regards, Dmitry A. Kazakov http://www.dmitry-kazakov.de
