Sorry, I should have been more specific. We are experimenting with Linux clusters and I wondered if R can take advantage of the multiprocessor environment.

With explicit programming, you can do something similar (highly depending on what you explicitly mean by "take advantage of") to multiple threads using the RPVM library. best, -tony -- A.J.
