I have written an R package to collect some functions to run simulations
for a research project. Main functions are written in C and make use of
BLAS routines, such as dsymm, dgemm, and ddot. I run simulations in
parallel by using mclapply and the problem is that after some point all R
instances collapse into one: R seems to be running, but simulations do not
progress further. If I run simulations on 16 cores I end up having an R
instance with CPU usage about 1600%, never experienced such a behaviour.
