Thanks for the link.

This is primarily what I was going on.  I realize no
benchmarking approach is going to be perfect, but
this attempt doesn't seem too bad.  Is there any
reason to be particularly sceptical about results
found here?

Oh, and I realize my comments about SBCL lisp being
3 to 4 times slower than C++ only apply for the quad
core machines.  The single core machines have SBCL
as 2.2 or 2.3 times slower than C++.  Perhaps this
is a truer representation of SBCL's "raw capabilities".

But a 120% performance hit is still quite a whack.

Cheers,

Mark P.
