us on the following key ACE frameworks:
<UL>
<LI> Logging
<LI> Service Configurator
<LI> Object Manager
<LI> Reactor
<LI> Framework Component
<LI> Thread Manager
<LI> Proactor
</UL>

We propose to apply the techniques we have mentioned above.  As a
result, we expect that we will be able to reduce footprint by another
~20-25% for certain classes of ACE applications, and a ~15-20%
reduction in compile- and link-time of applications. <P>

   Collectively, the optimizations we propose above will greatly
reduce
