The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

If Lisp is so great
* CLOS being bolted on instead of truly integrated in the language; would need a JIT and something like https://github.com/marcoheisig/fast-generic-functions on system classes to go fast enough, Julia kinda does this (but it hurts my eyes)

Common Lisp polymorphic stories.
About static typing and generic functions, are there limitations to fast-generic-functions built over sealable-metaobjects too? I felt that reasonable, albeit it takes away the dynamic nature of the objects after sealing.

Common Lisp polymorphic stories.
And, there won't be a way to properly understand what exactly PF (or CL) misses without immersing myself into a ML-style something, is there? As in, I get some parts of what you are saying; I myself had to (ab)use deftype and gensym intern for another library for providing (limited) parametric types; but I also fail to see something seriously wrong with it, given that it plays nicely with cl:declare, cl:typep and cl:subtypep for the primitive use case of single value type checking, declaration and with some additional things (compiler)macro based optimization.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing fast-generic-functions and abstract-arrays you can also consider the following projects:
ctype - CL type system implementation
ccl - Clozure Common Lisp
lisp-interface-library - LIL: abstract interfaces and supporting concrete data-structures in Common Lisp
polymorphic-functions - A function type to dispatch on types instead of classes with partial support for dispatching on optional and keyword argument types.
