Yup, that's it:

LISA-USER 5 > (time (test 40))
Timing the evaluation of (TEST 40)

user time    =3D      7.375
system time  =3D      0.046
Elapsed time =3D   0:00:08
Allocation   =3D 19436632 bytes standard / 12911976 bytes conses
0 Page faults

NIL

LISA-USER 6 >
Using a depth-first rather than breadth-first strategy (the former PUSHs
activations rather than appends) yields the above time, which is one second
slower than KnowledgeWorks.

I'd consider this a bug in the breadth-first strategy. I'll fix this and
issue a new release. Thanks Edi!
