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.

numericals - Performance of NumPy with the goodness of Common Lisp
Since the past year or two, I have been working on numericals that aims to provide the speed of NumPy with the goodness of Common Lisp. In particular, this includes the use of dynamic variables, restarts, and compiler-notes wherever appropriate. It uses CLTL2 API (and may be slightly more) under the hood to provide AOT dispatch, but nothing stops you from combining it with JAOT dispatch provided by numcl/specialized-function. This also spawned a number of projects most notably polymorphic-functions to dispatch on types instead of classes and extensible-compound-types that allows one to define user defined compound types (beyond just the type-aliases enabled by deftype. Fortunately enough, interoperation between magicl, numcl and numericals/dense-numericals actually looks plausible!

Static-Dispatch 0.5: Improved inlining on SBCL and performance improvements for generic-cl
I guess specialized-function would be what you are looking for, although I'm unsure if it already / can-be-made-to take(s) recompilation into account.

Compile-time array bound checks
(Shameless plug) I have recently been working on extensible-compound-types that might be useful. My main purpose with it was to bring "nice" custom array (and container) types without using satisfies-based hackery. But perhaps it can be put to use here.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing specialized-function and extensible-compound-types you can also consider the following projects:
numericals - CFFI enabled SIMD powered simple-math numerical operations on arrays for Common Lisp [still experimental]
generic-cl - Generic function interface to standard Common Lisp functions
