Dear All, I am building R-1.3.1 on Solaris 2.7 and I am trying to use the native SUNperf BLAS/LAPACK. I have added the flags ("-dalign -xlic_lib=sunperf") for the compilers in the config.site file. What is not clear to me is what I have to do with the "--with-blas" flag for ./configure. It seems to me that omitting it is not enough. Any suggestions? Another ques...

OS X 10.2 and higher comes standard with highly optimized versions of BLAS and Lapack in /Systems/Library/Frameworks/vecLib.framework. It seems that even for double precision they do much better. See http://sthmac.magnet.fsu.edu/benchmarks/ I am not sure how these numbers would look on G3 Macs, but obviously for double precision there is not much reliance on Altivec. So I tried to configure

...of the posting in this list, I came across this posting from: From: Peter Dalgaard <p.dalgaard_at_biostat.ku.dk> Date: Fri 29 Oct 2004 - 08:02:40 EST Replying to Re: [R] Errors during make check He described a problem similar to mine, that build 64-bit R (I am building R version 2.0.1) with sunperf library gives a core dump during make check. So I configured my build without the sunperf (BLAS and lapack) library. My configure statement looks like this: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/R-2.0.1 --with-tcl-config=/usr/sfw/lib/tclCo nfig.sh --with-tk-config=/usr/sfw/lib/tkConfig.sh --without-bl...

...il -dalign" CXX="CC -xarch=v8plusa" CXXFLAGS="-xO5 -xlibmil -dalign" Actually, there is one thing that I didn't specify above, but I'm not sure how. The Sun Performance library is a BLAS library. In LAPACK, you specify it as BLASLIB ="-xlic_lib=sunperf" Is there a simple way to specify that in config.site? Anyways, that's probably not the problem that I'm having, but if you have any advice...
