Out of curiosity (as a Lispworks and SBCL user who has never seen this sort of performance difference between the two) is there anything in particular that you could attribute this to (eg. FFI, Streams)

It's hard to say, as we don't have LW on Linux to compare to. My guess is that Windows is a big contributor to the slowness.
