I am planning to implement garbage collection in Ada 95 when I get an Ada 95 compiler that has the memory pools implemented. I will generate some specific benchmark numbers on RCing v.s. GC method 1 v.s. GC method 2... I'll post the results when I get them. Fresco obviously is heavily tilted towards the GUI domain. Since many applications are GUI bound the numbers may be of general use. ... Bill
