A couple days ago this person posted on YouTube this clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pv4Yq35Chx0. In the video it was run against Pascal and Ada lost by being 50% slower than Pascal on Prime Sieving. Also shown as 2 orders of magnitude slower than the fastest implementation of that day. See on video at 20:45. This is the base implementation link: https://github.com/PlummersSoftwareLLC/Primes/blob/drag-race/PrimeAda/solution_1/src/main.adb. I know it's trivial, and probably click bait on the video person, but this is not a good PR on Ada reputation. The guy said do a better implementation to get a better score. So can Ada implementation do better?
