Some CL compilers even don't save an image. An extreme example is mocl. mocl applications for a 64bit iPad start at 1 MB size.

Other examples of CL compilers not saving an image are ECL and WCL.

The ECL manual had the terminology a bit wrong, but it actually does not dump an image.

> For example, the executable for a Lisp version of the canonical ``Hello World!'' program requires only 20k bytes on 32 bit x86 Linux.
