The key time critical parts of R are written in compiled C and FORTRAN. Of course, if you want to take the time to code and validate a Cox PH or mixed effects model in F# and then run them against R's coxph() or lme()/lmer() functions to test the timing, feel free... :-) So unless there is a pre-existing library of statistical and related functionality for F#, perhaps you need to reconsider your query.
