Subject: speed of generic code in Ada (vs Java)

Java only allows 'objects' as generics parameters. So, if you define a
generic class and use 'Integer' as a parameter, your code will be slow
because of the boxing - up to 5x compared to non-generic Int (see the
recent discussion in comp.lang.java.programmer - the 'numerics'
thread). Is the situation similar with generics in Ada, GNAT,
specifically?
