Re: memory leakages with Ada?

["Marin David Condic" <dont.bother.mcondic.auntie.spam@[acm.org>]

At least part of the problem is that there may be companies who have
collected internal metrics on projects that demonstrate superior performance
for Ada projects, but they may be reluctant to share that data with the
world for a variety of reasons. It perhaps requires that some university
decide to do some studies whereby the companies may get some asurances of
protection of their data from competitors, exposure of processes from
competitors, etc.

I agree that it would be good to have studies that demonstrate better Ada
performance - its just a problem of who is going to pay for it?
