README

        
FlashR is an R package that accelerate the existing R matrix functions to process

tera-scale datasets at the lightning speed.

FlashR overrides many R matrix functions in the R "base" package so that users

can execute many existing R code in FlashR with no or little modification.

FlashR parallelizes all matrix operations automatically and scales to large datasets

by storing matrices on solid-state drives (SSDs).

It executes many matrix operations together to achieve performance comparable

to optimized C implementations.

## Installation

To install from Github directly, 

```

git clone --recursive https://github.com/flashxio/FlashR.git

cd FlashR

R CMD build .

R CMD INSTALL FlashR_0.1-0.tar.gz
