I am trying to compare the speed of my R code with that reported by the authors of a reference paper who used Matlab. The authors of the paper state "Total CPU time for the algorithm was 10 s for the ...on a modest mobile 2.2 GHz Pentium processor running MATLAB v.6".
I am using proc.time (similar to the example shown in ?proc.time) to determine the speed of my R code. Could someone please tell me whether "user" time or "system" time is the equivalent of total CPU time reported by Matlab.
