Changing the locale to an ISO 8859-1 locale, i.e.: export LC_ALL="en_US.ISO-8859-1" export LANG="en_US.ISO-8859-1" I could *not* reproduce it; that is, ‘table’ is as fast on the non-ASCII factor as it is on the ASCII factor. -- Karl Ove Hufthammer ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
