A Case Study in Optimising Code in R

This post presents an experience I had optimising the efficiency of code for a data analysis task in R. I'm not an expert in programming nor code optimisation. However, I thought my experience might make an interesting case study for others at a similar level in their R programming development. The post sets out: (1) the context of the problem; (2) the strategies and tools in R that I used to diagnose the problem and optimise the code; (3) some lessons learnt from the experience; and (4) some links to additional resources.
