I have a fairly large CAPI (UI) example in my Common Lisp book and it runs OK on the free LispWorks edition. The free edition of LispWorks is memory and session time limited, but these limits allow many use cases. The message list for LispWorks contains comments that make me believe that many people use the free edition.

All my experiences with LispWorks come from using the free versions. But basically the first time I tried to use it for real I was trying to run a program I was developing at the time. It used a modest data set of 50 MB and immediately exceeded the limits of the free version. So my tests didn't get far. If I could have paid a modest sum to remove those limits, I would have done it on the spot.
