Hello Brian,

            I am working on porting R to a new architecture which would be
most optimized only when we are benchmarking it with huge amounts of data
and computation. So, I will be more interested towards benchmarks or
workloads which would be sufficiently complex.. Could you provide some
pointers for the same?

TIA

Regards,

          Imanpreet Singh Arora
