Ada vs. C: An analysis at Tartan found that Ada and C had fairly similar performance, with Ada having a slight edge. See “C vs. Ada: Arguing Performance Religion” by David Syiek, ACM Ada Letters, Nov/Dec 1995 (Volume XV Number 6), pp. 67-69. Ada vs. assembly language: There is a documented case where an Ada compiler and a novice Ada programmer did better than experienced assembly language programmers. See “Ada Whips Assembly” by Elam and Lawlis, Crosstalk, March 1992. Published by the Software Technology Support Center, Hill Air Force Base, Utah: Defense Printing Service.
