FastR: an alternative R language implementation

R is a highly dynamic language that employs a unique combination of data type immutability, lazy evaluation, argument matching, large amount of built-in functionality, and interaction with C and Fortran code. It is therefore a challenging task to develop an alternative R runtime that is both compatible with GNU R and can provide performance of R code comparable to static programming languages like C.FastR is an open source alternative R implementation that is trying to achieve this. The talk will introduce FastR and demonstrate the performance improvements it can offer, compatibility with GNU R by being able to run unmodified popular complex CRAN packages like ggplot2 or Shiny, and FastR unique features, for example in-process multi-threaded execution, and tools like CPU sampler or viewing R memory dumps with VisualVM.
