Hi, To speed up reading of large (few million lines) CSV files I am writing custom read functions (in C). By timing various approaches I figured out that one of the bottlenecks in reading character fields is the mkChar() function which on each call incurs a lot of garbage-collection-related overhead. I wonder if there is a "vectorized" version of mkChar, say mkChar2(char **, int

Hi all, Why is the object size of an empty vector 40 bytes? (At least in 64-bit R.) object.size(integer(0)) # 40 bytes Reading R internals, it looks like it should be: * 4 bytes: sxpinfo header (= 32 bits) * 8 bytes: pointer to attributes * 8 bytes: pointer to next node * 8 bytes: pointer to previous node * 4 bytes: length * 4 bytes: true length = 36 bytes Where are the extra 4 bytes coming
