The echo area informs me that SLIME is still polling the connection ("Polling "/tmp/slime.1257".. (Abort with `M-x slime- abort-connection'.)"). Clearing out old FASL's doesn't seem to make a difference. This is an Intel Mac, if that's relevant.
slime cvs or 2.0? i believe, but am not sure, that you're one of the few people to run slime on lispworks 5 (it hasn't been out that long), so it may be lispworks 5 specific.
CVS. Peder Klingenberg reports that it happens in 4.x too.
