R help - Aug 2004 - Testing Performance of R on AIX

Dear R Users,
  I compiled two R-1.9.1 environments on IBM P690 AIX platform, one with
optimization level 3(-O3), another with optimization level 2(-O). I
would like to do some performance comparison with these two
environments. Can anybody give me some advices for how to do the
performance test against R?
Thanks in advance.

Acovea is a nice tool for testing gcc optimization options, but you would
probably have to do a lot of work to build tests for R.
