Well, that's because you didn't tell me (us) anything about any of the above. I was simply commenting on the code that you posted, which was all that I could see, not being a mind-reader myself. > To make such a blind statement is ignorant and insulting. You might note the smile at the end of my post. My comment was intended much more tongue-in-cheek than you seem to have taken it. > I can assure you that using Rcpp speeds up my process by a factor of at > least 100.

It *is* important to understand which *particular* tasks Rcpp excels at versus R, and this has been an ongoing topic of conversation here on the list. With respect to the example you posted, I stand by my comment, which does in fact illustrate this issue quite nicely. Welcome to the fray :) > If you notice, I sent a redaction almost immediately after, asking everyone > to ignore my previous e-mail. Nope. From where i'm sitting, it didn't hit the mailing-list.
