The actual question posed was whether R behaves differently than RStudio at parallel computation, which is like asking whether apple pies grow better than apple trees. The answer is that RStudio doesn't do any computation... it is a programming environment that hands off all computation to a se

[R] R & RStudio hardware Utilization

2017-08-20 Thread Vasilis Bardakos via R-help
I am going to attend MSc Data Science in September, so I consider upgrading my system to be more efficient with my projects.I used RStudio for my Macroeconomics Undergraduate Thesis and I had a couple of loops which needed almost 30 minutes to occur. My system specifications are the following:
