Personally I do not want to be forced to deploy R or whatever when I
deploy Pharo. Period.
We have enough dependencies to external libraries dll and other.
If for one of your project you want to use a hyper cool super hyper
coool external libraries then perfect. Not for Pharo.
Now we should focus on what is important for core pharo and my remark is
about the core.
About the FFI, would be good that people stop complaining and help.
We supported Igor NB (Laurent wrote a tutorial that I spent time to
revisit even if I never did a FFI call) so where were you?
Where are you pharoers when it is about to write something for the
community?
For your information we are in discussion with ronie (I do not know
the status of his back-end),
esteban spent 4 months working on a new FFI front-end using NB
syntax and back end using FFI. The idea is that we can plug the back-end
of ronie.
Our team on his **own** money will invite ronie to work with us
(Now we lost the money of our of our sponsors so times will be difficult).

yeah but if this is a special case there is no problems on doing FFI
bindings and using an external library.
Precisely for that is FFI.
not that we have to integrate everything into the image :)
but… I would not be so fast in assume pharo performance will not be
enough. Unique form to know it is to do it and then see how you can
optimise, if needed :)

Not sure you would get enough performance on Pharo per se. Xe may be
better off leveraging a multicore enabled external lib. Like caret
and doMC on R.

I don't think so.
I followup your message on SciSmalltalk mailing-list.
This is something that might interested us ;-)
