But you need to program in a way that allows the usage of multiple, different types. That can more often than not lead to worse performance.
Seemingly it is done that way.
I rather often did a kind of "Generics" in ANSI C by using Macros. It's catastrophic for code writing and for debugging but does not impose any performance issues.
I suppose there is a reason why in Pascal Generics are not translated in multiple dedicatedly typed code snippets at compile time.
