[Rd] R process (and forked children via system2) are limited to 1 core?

Hi, (Using R 3.1.1 on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS) What is the recommended way for R to fork a (non-R) process that is not CPU limited? Currently I am using R’s system2() call, and this is inheriting the environment of the R process. I notice that (at least on Linux) when I am poking around /proc t

Hi Nathaniel, Thanks for the suggestion. I’m actually not really using R to do any real work. I’m starting the R H2O package (a Java machine learning package) and forwarding all the work to H2O. This is the list of packages I have in R: > search() [1] ".GlobalEnv""package:h2o"

Re: [Rd] portableParalleSeeds Package violation, CRAN exception?

You can make an environment called streamsEnv in your package by adding streamsEnv <- new.env() to one of your R/*.R files. (its parent environment will be namespace:yourPackage) and your functions can assign things to this environment instead of to .GlobalEnv. Bill Dunlap TIBCO Software wdunla

I'm writing to ask for a policy exception, or advice on how to make this package CRAN allowable. http://rweb.quant.ku.edu/kran/src/contrib/portableParallelSeeds_0.9.tar.gz Yesterday I tried to submit a package on CRAN and Dr Ripley pointed out that I had not understood the instructions about pack

I've been developing a package to use S3 bucket on AWS by using libs3 code. I have two problems. The first is, by standard, it will attempt to install i386 and x64 if I don't have a configure.win. The problem with this is that while everything appears to compile correctly, I get this error when
