Does anyone have information on lisp in a realtime environment? 

We are evaluating a number of languages for command processing in a realtime
speech delivery system. Lisp is being considered because the arguments to the
module conform nicely to a list metaphor. My concerns are that lisp is too
slow and too large to be of use in this environment. Any comments?

The target machine is 68020 based. Any experience/advice on interpreters/compilers
for this machine?

Thanks for your consideration,
-Mike
