We regularly build the standard R against MKL, simply using ./configure --with-blas='-mkl=parallel' --with-lapack --enable-BLAS-shlib (The --enable-BLAS-shlib is not strictly needed for building agains MKL.) We also try to optimise the build by setting some environment variables before running configure: fast="-ip -O3 -opt-mem-layout-trans=3 -xHost -mavx" export CC="icc" export CFLAGS="$fast -wd188 -fp-model precise" export F77="ifort" export FFLAGS="$fast -fp-model precise" export CXX="icpc" export CXXFLAGS="$fast -fp-model precise" export FC="ifort" export FCFLAGS="$fast -fp-model precise" -- Regards, Bjørn-Helge Mevik ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
