I guess you want a multi-threaded R. The cheapest way is to recompile
R from the source and link it with an multi-threaded BLAS. See R-admin
for details. See also Dirk's recent survey on this topic
http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/papers/gcbd.pdf I managed to do this under
my linux box with Intel core 2 CPU which works well. But I haven't tried
with i7 CPU.

Hello,
Is there a way to force through R the amount of the cpu's cores (or
the cpu's utilization level) used under Windows 7 or Linux?
Thanks,
