Compiling swank.lisp via
(time (compile-file "swank.lisp"))
vs
(time (compile-file "swank.lisp" :verbose nil :print nil))
reveals a major overhead.
First command takes ~14secs, whereas the second 2.3 secs.
The first command at the terminal, without Slime, takes roughly 5.5 secs.
Using :spawn, without dedicated output stream. Dedicated output stream probably has a much better performance, but where does /that/ much overhead come from in the default implementation?
