Thankfully SBCL is just an implementation and not the language ;)

There are alternative implementations, like ECL, which is capable of transpiling to C and producing small binaries and dylibs. Then there are implementations like CCL, which have low memory footprint (a freshly booted image consumes ~6.8 MB RAM on my Mac). Lastly, there are commercial implementations like LispWorks and Allegro CL which offer tree-shaking, unlike all other implementations.
