Two packages with many features, dozens of functions and under heavy
development to fix bugs, add new features and improve performance, vs.
a single operator with a limited and well-defined functionality, and a
reference implementation that hasn't changed in years (but certainly
hackish in a way that probably could only be improved from R itself).

Can't you really spot the difference?
