Actually, 2 ** 31 * Whatever'Size / 8 bytes.
However, this is not technically true. The language does not specify how such
things are stored. Some compilers (Janus Ada, for example) only use enough
memory to store the current value of the object; others (GNAT, for example)
allocate enough memory for the largest possible value. Of course, portable code
has to work with both.
