The old sentence was:

	Mercury addresses the problems of large-scale program
	development, allowing modularity, separate compilation, and
	numerous optimization/time trade-offs.

How about:

	Mercury addresses the problems of large-scale program
        development, allowing modularity, separate compilation, and
	control over compile-time/run-time trade-offs.

If you don't like that, I suggest adding another sentence, expressing
the idea more clearly.
