[R-SIG-Finance] High performance computing with R

[soren wilkening]

Hi

This will depend on what kind of tests you want to run and on what amount of
data. Find an answer to that question first. 

Then you trial-run these tests on your currently available hardware. And you
may see that not even the two setups you are suggesting will be sufficiently
fast for *some* tests. 

As for the hardware choices. I prefer simpler one-box solutions. less
hassle.

You may also want to look at the 'multicore' package (linux only).

regards

Soren
