> What is a special benefit than c or c++ on multicore cpus?
  Ada has robust multitasking built in, which makes it simpler and more
natural to write programs that take advantage of multiple processors.
Ada programmers are thus also more likely to be comfortable with writing
for multitasking.
  In another thread here, some Ada versions of a simple word counting
benchmark were compared to C versions.  But a multitasking Ada version,
a simple modification of the straightforward single tasking version, was
shown to run about 50% faster on a dual CPU system.
