%dopar% parallel processing experiment
dear R experts---
I am experimenting with multicore processing, so far with pretty
disappointing results. Here is my simple example:
A <- 100000
randvalues <- abs(rnorm(A))
minfn <- function( x, i ) { log(abs(x))+x^3+i/A+randvalues[i] } ?## an

?library(foreach)
?discard <- foreach(i = 1:A) %do% uniroot( minfn, c(1e-20,9e20), i ) } else
if (ARGV[1] == "do-mu...
