In our setting (with our mix of applications, typically list- and set-processing)
I get for the comparison of Ecl (11.1.1) and Sbcl (1.0.53):
- Sbcl needs roughly 50% more time with loading files (especially for our
tests that's not so nice, since every test runs on its own and loads a
lot of files).
- Sbcl is around 30% faster (sometimes more, sometimes less, but seems to
be around that).
So for our applications the advantage is not so great.
