I am looking for ways to reduce my process size for calls to mclapply. I
have determined that the size of my process is creating too much overhead
for the forking to be faster than a serial run.I am looking for some
techniques to experiment with. I have been getting huge efficiency gains
.

Thank you for your response. Please let me know how I can
unhandicap my question. I tried my best to be concise. Maybe this
will help:
version
_
platform i386-w64-mingw32
arch i386
os mingw32
system
I'm running package parallel in R-3.0.2.
Below are the execution times using system.time for when executing
serially versus in parallel (with 2 cores) using parRapply.
Serially:
user system elapsed
4.670.034.71
Using package parallel:
user system elapsed
3.820.12

want to start the workers manually? I'd
be happy to look into the details if you can reproduce the problem with a
recent version of R and the parallel package.

This is in regards to the SNOW library.
I'm using Windows. The problem is that makeSOCKcluster hangs in R as well
as the DOS command line. Below I've shown that it completes the Rscript
until it reaches the line slaveLoop(master) , at which point it hangs.
