Hi
Can we use BLAS in R X64 for windows?

You are already using BLAS in R as R includes its own BLAS library. On
Windows the 64-bit DLL is located at R_HOME\bin\x64\Rblas.dll.

If you are asking about swapping that out for an optimized BLAS, you will
Thanks very much, Uwe. The calculation time is now comparable with matlab.

No, it is reasonable for matrix multiplication:
Matlab ships with optimized BLAS for various CPU types. In R, you have
to get an optimized BLAS yourself.

Please give the code you used for the matrix multiplication. 5 times is a
bit much.

Hi,
A quick bench-mark of an R matrix muliplication 500by500 X 500by1, all
random variates, with matlab reveals a huge difference in speed (5 times at
least). Is there anything that can be done in R to speed up the
multiplication?
Kind regards, Oyvind
