I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to accomplish, but I wonder if either of the following two ideas would help you: 1. Instead of source(), consider loading the R code on the server side and then using save(..., compres=TRUE) to create a binary image. You can then feed that to the clients and have them use load(). 2. What happens if you gzip the code before sending and gunzip on the client side. It may be less convenient, although supposedly there is a way to do the equivalent of gzfile(url(...)).
