Hi Folks,
I just upgraded R to the latest R version 2.9.0 (2009-04-17)
(from the Debian Etch repository). It seems to me that it
at least starts up much faster than it used to and, though I
don't have comparative timing data for long jobs, also that
it does its work faster. Is that just an impression, or has
something been done to speed things up?

With thnks,
Ted.
