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.

Arena Allocation in SBCL
Based on the commit message [0], and the references to "user code" in this document, my guess is that user programs have or will have access, but it's not finalized enough to be documented.
That being said, I suppose if you're developing an internal API for a compiler/interpreter, your "users" could be other parts of the project rather than language users.

Mini Lisp in under 1k lines of C: Cheney or mark-sweep GC, which is best?
I'm currently implementing Immix in SBCL (got generations working yesterday), but I wouldn't recommend one does that for a miniature implementation, as my implementation (though with hacks, performance tricks of dubious quality, and having to put the hysterical raisins somewhere) is about 1kLOC, and I haven't even gotten to writing compaction yet. A simple hybrid of mark-sweep and copying is the Lang-Dupont collector which copies one portion of the heap at a time, marking and reclaiming the rest in place.

Creator of SerenityOS announces new Jakt programming language
I say this while failing to design a parallel GC for SBCL for my second time; but I was unaware of the more clever RC schemes until recently, as nor myself nor my older colleagues seemed to have only used naive RC.

The self-hosted Zig compiler can now successfully compile itself
"the distributed system" is the first link, garbage collector is this link; again I wrote the backend for SICL as well as other parts, and I didn't say I made a language.
What are some alternatives?
