I am running algorithms for Bayesian hierarchical models with 20 or more
variables or writing alogrithms that solve for partially linear models using
wavlelet estimation. Soemtimes just creating the predicted vaules from the
Bayesian analysis takes over a day to run!
I am just wondering if R

It can depend on a whole list of things why the computations were taking so
long, and just saying what methods you are using to do the computation is
far from sufficient, as there are efficient ways and inefficient ways to do
any computations, and we don't know how you did any of them. With the
I am not sure...
But my employer would like to get me a new machine and considering that R is
the program I use most often, he was wondering what type of machine would be
the best to get form me.

Hey,
Can anyone answer this question. I am working with really large datasets and
most of the programs I have been running take quite some time.
I heard that R may be faster in Unix. I sthis true and if so can anyone
reccomend which system and requirements may allow things to go
