Thanks for the link. > There's also the (in)famous language benchmark > site:http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/ 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.
