For me it makes little difference: > system.time(for(i in 1:100) read.zoo(DF, split = 3, index = 2, FUN = > identity)) user system elapsed 1.72 0.00 1.71 > system.time(for(i in 1:100) read.zoo(DF, split = 2, index = 3, FUN = > identity)) user system elapsed 1.75 0.00 1.74 -- Statistics & Software Consulting GKX Group, GKX Associates Inc. tel: 1-877-GKX-GROUP email: ggrothendieck at gmail.com ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
