[Ecls-list] How much system resources will ECL consume?

I've read that ECL will compile common lisp to C.
I target a Z80 system with 1 KB of RAM, 32 KB of ROM, no operating system.
I currently use the sdcc cross-compiler writing my programs in C99 (with
some inner loops implemented in assembler).
Would it be possible to write them in lisp, then use ECL to generate C
code to compile with sdcc?
Will there be problems with the 1KB limit on RAm usage and 32 KB limit
on code size?

I have no programmiong experience with lisp, but might want to try it
since it seems to be a language which is a bit different from the ones I
know.
