Sergey,

F# is public, but is not open source. 

F# run in windows but run in AIX, linux, MAC, UNIX etc?

Compiled code should run faster than R, but is precise?

Compiled code should run faster than R, but is reliable?

Compiled code should run faster than R, but have 2.440 packages for
extend your capacities?

Compiled code should run faster than R, but critical code is in C o
FORTRAN

So I think the F# is not a good alternative, if your concern is velocity
