[Rd] Is there any way to find out how a certain functions are implemented in R?

[Kasper Daniel Hansen]

This comment won't help you much, but still... there are usually a lot  
of ways you can do to implement a bootstrap, and a lot of the  
approaches people use (especially if they are used to think in C-like  
terms) are pretty slow. But it can be made quite fast. So: are you  
sure you have optimized it? You could try profiling. Have you looked  
at the boot library?
