Dear R-listers, what is the best way to draw an XY scatterplot with symbol size proportional to the value taken on by a third variable?

It is not prohibitively slow given the OS-level support, but it does take up quite a bit of space as the indices are built with the packages (and building base from the HTML files takes ca 25 secs then). It is the sort of thing which help.search might do, if re-written in a compiled language. Building its present database is quite slow and an FTS one would be very much slower in R. -- Brian D.
