Question on: The tutorial you need to maximize your use of R's vectors (CC273) #8

Hi Pat, I very much enjoyed the YouTube video you made about vector performance. I work in the healthcare domain at Philips, a health tech provider. I am a qualified clinical engineer and have done tons of data analytics with R. However, during the last three years, I have shifted efforts into developing enterprise-level applications using R. My main interest is more around the topic of architecture design and coding patterns using R. Recently I have also done a deep dive in the internal workings for R and how it stored variables in memory. I have learned a lot and am happy to share those with others. My question is if contributions are welcome, and if so, do you have suggestions on how I can contribute?

Hi Flippie - thanks for your interest in this project! Could you perhaps write a blog post that you could host somewhere and get me the link to read what you've found? I'm not sure how much more benchmarking I'll be doing past the next 2 or 3 episodes, but it would be interesting to see what you came up with.

Thanks, Pat

This is a great suggestion! I already have the information scattered across my machine. For now, I focus on vectors but include memory and performance profiling, as well as the data structure used under the hood to represent the different vector types. I'll consolidate all the material and share a copy with you. It will take me some time as I want to make sure it is suitable for wider consumption. Once again, thanks for the great videos!
