Message-ID: List-Id: I am considering the purchase of Meridian's OpenAda DOS 386 compiler for a small interrupt-driven application running on a 486DX at 33MHz. I am primarily concerned about the task switching overhead time, as my early (1985) experiences with the Ada compilers of the day showed task switching to be a major time hog. Anyone out there have anything to say about OpenAda DOS 386, besides "the price is right"?
