Yes; see my post predating this (still using GOTO not OpenBLAS) 

    http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/blog/2010/09/15/

and of course the package and vignette which has much more detail

    https://cran.rstudio.com/web/packages/gcbd/index.html
    
    https://cran.rstudio.com/web/packages/gcbd/vignettes/gcbd.pdf

We have a dedicated list r-sig-hpc which may be more suitable for this
discussion than continuing on r-devel.  [1]
