not little memory, but SBCL's conservative (i.e. imprecise) garbage collection - it doesn't always recognize that an object is a garbage. I saw cases where CCL compiles a project under a 100MB heap, while SBCL reproducibly runs out of 1GB heap. > or batching system loads, There is no batch loading, each test is run in a fresh CL process. > or some other reason, and > have to be retried. I would put it differently: some failures may be ignored because on the previous version they were successful by a chance, and could faile the same way too.
