Orion 1.0.0 release on a VM !
Code and documentation are here: https://github.com/orion-lang/orion
- I switched my language from a tree walk interpreter to a VM, and speed was multiplied by 19.

Vim Lisp, a LISP like language created to make Vim configuration more pleasant to do.
When my language VM will be finished, I plan to make this project a library of it. It is not a real LISP, I picked the syntax in Scheme and concepts from OCaml, but I think it could be good for that use case.

Orion, a purely functionnal Lisp written in Rust.
Might be because it uses a tree-walking interpreter.
If I am reading the source right, it copies everything, which is not really beneficial for performance.

Ketos: Lisp dialect scripting and extension language for Rust programs
I messed around with and contributed to this project a bit. The biggest challenge I saw in day to day usage was that line numbers aren't included in error messages: https://github.com/murarth/ketos/issues/11
