grep reveals threads-based code in CL-SQL so this seems likely.

You can use `C-c C-x t' to get a buffer listing all threads.

Does it only become slow after you connect with CL-SQL? And if you run
it outside SLIME then the toplevel remains responsive?

Generally it's easy to get "starvation" with CMUCL's threads since
they aren't preemptive. But I don't understand why you would get it
only under SLIME.
