I ran the simple script bellow and received shoking results. It was complied
for about 15 seconds !!! on modern Intel Core Duo computer.

i=0;
while(i<5000000)
{
    i=i+1;
}

Using Visual Basic I can complete the same script (simple loop of 5000000
itterations) in 0.1 sec.
Is it realy R not suitable for huge computing.
