Re: Magnavox consultant trashes Ada tools in IEEE Computer

     I've been waiting for someone who knows to post the current size
of AFATADS, but last I heard it was about 2 million SLOC.  Four (8
hour) days to recompile everything works out to 1000+ lines a minute,
24 hour days it would be closer to 350.  The truth is probably
somewhere in that range.  The less than a day figure on the HP Snake
only puts a lower bound on the performance on that platform.

     How long does it take to compile a 2 million line C++ program in
that environment?  I'm pretty sure it has never been done on such a
small machine, but Microsoft might have comparable answers on for the
large RISC platforms...
