These articles either focus on data.table (bold) or mention/use it (perhaps only briefly and you may need to search the article for "data.table"), ordered by date. If you know of an article that may be of interest to others, please add it here (**). You can also search all articles from the R blogosphere since c. 2009 on http://www.r-bloggers.com/. There is no filter applied: if the article exists and mentions data.table, positively or negatively, it is included on this page. Please watch out for benchmarks measured in microseconds on small data. Comparisons on such small scales often do not hold when scaled up to larger data because they over-represent call overhead. A test repetition count (e.g. ntimes) of 100 or more is often an indication that the test data size is too small. Please check that setkey() has been used and its time reported separately. Tutorials, slides and videos are over on the Videos & Slides page.

(**) all pages on this wiki have no permissions. You are encouraged to change content in this wiki yourself as you see fit. Changes will go live immediately with no oversight by any project member. If you spot any abuse, please check the edit history to see who made the edit and please inform us.
