Let's say a have  method  specialized in (a foo) & (b bar) and  I'm
unsatisfied with it's performance and I want to ubound it in running
image, so the generic function will call least specialized method. Is
there a way to do it?

Works especially well in conjunction with FIND-METHOD. ;)

I recently discovered the object insptector in slime and it provides a
lovely interface for doing this which some people might not be aware
of.

First, inspect the class object on which the method specializes using
C-c I name-of-class.  That presents you with a buffer containing the
classes slots, methods , etc.  For each method, there's a button you
can press to remove it.

Hats off to the slime guys,
Andy

Well, that's kind of a 'standard' functionality.

In LispWorks you can use the Generic Function Browser.
Menu 'Methods > Undefine ...' in the menubar or the context menu.

But usually the Editor has it, too.
In the LispWorks Editor just move the text cursor to
the DEFMETHOD form you want to undefine and do M-x Undefine.

Similar functionality exists in other development environments
(say, MCL).
