Yes. But strangely enough, the two Lisp implementations that really kick ass are both free and not particularly old. CMUCL and SBCL proves that you can make a dynamic language implementation extremely efficient if you try hard enough. There are also implementations of Scheme (e.g. Bigloo) that shows the same. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
