title: What is the most performant lisp on the JVM
body: <p>What is the most performant (fastest) lisp implementation on the JVM?
  By lisp implementation I consider all implementations of any language in lisp family, like Common Lisp, Scheme, Clojure, ...</p>
  
  <p>I know that Clojure can be made pretty fast using type hints, that ABCL is in general not considered to be fast. I don't have experience using any Scheme on JVM, but heard that Kawa is pretty fast too.</p>
