[R] R performance

[Marc Jekel]

Dear R Fans,

I was recently asking myself how quick R is in code execution. I have 
been running simulations lately that need quite a time for execution and 
I was wondering if it is reasonable at all to do more computational 
extensive projects with R. Of course, it is possible to compare 
execution time for the same code written in several languages but maybe 
someone has some experience on the subject?

Thanks for a reply,

Marc
