Dear All,
I need to do some very basic R profiling, something along the lines
of: run this whole script five times and return the average
completion time.
I do not want (at this stage) delve into the details of the
percentage of the time spent in which function and doing what.
Which tools should I use?
There are 3 packages (compliled for my version anyway) on CRAN whose
titles contain "benchmark". I have experience using the "rbenchmark"
package which has a very simple syntax and would definitely meet your
minimal requirements. From reading postings on r-devel but no direct
experience, I suspect the "benchmark" package may be more full-featured.

Any recommendation is welcome.
