I have seen one very nice paper that compared parallelization options for R: http://epub.ub.uni-muenchen.de/8991/ losemind wrote: > > > we have to rewrite the whole R programs? > > I would like to disclaim that I haven't had the time to parallelize any of my R scripts. That being said, I noticed that many of the packages above implement parallelized versions of the apply() functions. Maybe taking advantage of apply wherever possible is a way to ensure you can get some benefit from parallelization without rewriting large portions of code.
