FOO is a medium-sized (4925 element) list of strings, containing 1362 duplicates.
 
    Evaluation of (REMOVE-DUPLICATES FOO :TEST #'STRING=) took 932.519780 seconds of elapsed time including:
      13.231 seconds processing sequence breaks,
      7.919 seconds in the storage system (including 4.649 seconds waiting for pages):
        6.749 seconds processing 7079 page faults including 216 fetches,
        0.804 seconds in creating and destroying pages, and
        0.366 seconds in miscellaneous storage system tasks.
    The garbage collector has flipped; so no consing was measured.

Whats going on here?

I'm running Genera 8.1.1 on a 3640, 7.5MW physical.
