I was not particularly annoyed, just disappointed, since R seems like a much better thing than SAS in general, and doing everything with a combination of hand-rolled tools is too much work. However, I do need to work with very large data sets, and if it takes 20 minutes to read them in, I have to explore other options (one of which might be S-PLUS, which claims scalability as a major , er, PLUS over R).
