Description
It's no secret that to optimize R code one has to write it in C (or C++). This is, however, just a beginning. When does it make sense to rewrite the code? What are the typical performance sinkholes? What are the key techniques to get even more performance?
There are surprisingly few resources where you could find the answers, and my talk will try to fill that gap. Lately, I've been working on improving performance of {purrr} functions and at least one of these improvements already made it to the official release, speeding up every() and friends twice. I've learnt a lot and I want others to learn too, as there are too many packages to optimize for me to go at it alone.
