You haven't looked hard enough. It's in the introduction to design of
Ada83 (and prob. still in the intro to Ada95) that run time efficiency
was an important factor in the design.
They got it wrong in a couple of cases - notably rendezvous (as the
only sync mechanism), and holey representation clauses for enumeration
types (...when you iterate over them with a for loop, or use them
as an index into an array).
