> Chez and Gambit. Speed competitive with C/C++/Fortran.
That's rather unlikely given that SBCL (known to be one of the fastest CL implementation) is about five times slower in the CLBG benchmarks. Also the author found that Chez is in the "same ballpark as SBCL Common Lisp" and "Gambit performs similarly".
I think for scientific computing, Clasp (see https://github.com/clasp-developers/clasp) is an interesting candidate since it makes a huge number of high-performance scientific libraries accessible to Lisp.
