The C and Ada compilers sold by Harris CSD with their machines use
the same code generation technology.  It's quite good,  as their SPECmark's
demonstrate.  The Ada compiler's code equals the C compiler's code in quality,  
and sometimes exceeds it,  as the Ada front end has more range and constraint 
information available to it.  Of course,  the Ada runs slower when runtime
checks are enabled,  but nothing in life is free...

Disclaimer:  I have no connection with Harris other than previous employment.
