I'd like to hear answers to this as well.
A language doesn't have to be a complete
replacement to be useful.
F# seems to have some nice features.

Hello, Marc
No, I do not want to validate Cox PH. :-)
I do use R daily, though right now I do not use the statistical part that much.
I just generally wonder if any R-user tried F# and his/her opinions.
Regards,
Sergey

Hello, everyone
F# is now public. Compiled code should run faster than R.
Anyone has opinion on F# vs. R? Just curious
Best,

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.
