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.

Eliminating CLOS for a 4.5x speedup
I wonder if things like https://github.com/marcoheisig/sealable-metaobjects would help with the speed while keeping the CLOSiness.

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.

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)

What are some alternatives?
When comparing sealable-metaobjects and fast-generic-functions you can also consider the following projects:
lisp-interface-library - LIL: abstract interfaces and supporting concrete data-structures in Common Lisp
ctype - CL type system implementation
ccl - Clozure 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.
