Anybody out there who could comment? There is no such thing as "THE" Ada Run Time. There are as many implementations of an Ada Run Time as compiler/platform combinations. Using DEC Ada (Ada83) on OpenVMS systems, we had applications using up to 6000 tasks in one single process, with a high I/O rate, which run quite smoothly. You can acheive this with a robust and versatile O/S and a perfect integration of the Ada Run Time with the underlying O/S. -Thierry Lelegard
