Are you compiling via REPL commands? To get fancy notes in SLIME you
have to compile using Emacs commands. `C-c C-k' compiles and loads the
current file, and `C-c C-c' compile and loads the current function
(top-level form).

Also, SLIME was a bit slow if you had a lot of notes (e.g. over a
hundred). That was fixed a couple of weeks ago.
