[net.wanted] Need Ada compiler for 4.2

km@emory.UUCP (Ken Mandelberg) (02/14/84)

We need to acquire an ADA compiler to run on 4.2 BSD. The
only compiler I know of is the NYU compiler. I would
appreciate any information on what is available, including
a comparision of speeds and cost.

Is it practical to expect that a 4 Megabyte Vax 780 could
support 15 students in an edit/compile/run cycle, with some
CPU left over for 15 other users with less demanding tasks?

We currently have access to the  NYU VMS implementation. Is
there any reason to expect performance differences between
it and the NYU Unix implementation?
