It'd be guesswork.

Without libsigsegv or generational GC:
(time (ext:gc)) will be slow (seconds on very old machines).
GC in the milliseconds range is a feature of generational GC.

The memory models influence some limits, e.g. MOST-POSITIVE-FIXNUM and
perhaps ARRAY-TOTAL-SIZE-LIMIT or one of the siblings.
Weren't you the one once wondering about the seemingly low
string size limit despite a 64 bit build?
