Additional question: the plyr package mentions that parallel computation can be set up using the parallel computing backend from 'foreach'.
Is this limited to executing the following two lines on a UNIX machine (source http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/doMC/.../gettingstartedMC.pdf gettingStartedDoMC.txt ): library(doMC) registerDoMC() Or should anything else be done too?
