[R] Version 2 of benchmark test

[Philippe Grosjean]

Hi all,

I have update my benchmark test suite to version 2 that now uses R as the
reference software (http://www.sciviews.org/other/benchmark.htm). Results
concern R 1.7.0 under Windows XP, compared to S-PLUS, Matlab, Octave,
Scilab, O-Matrix and Ox. Testing data analysis software for speed is just
one part of the problem (a current thread is dealing, for instance, with QA
which is a different aspect). However, this benchmark could be informative,
keeping its limitations in mind.
Best,

Philippe Grosjean
