Shiny: Easy web applications in R

For those interested in utilising the R language on the JVM (and thus relevant to web applications and thus to this post) there is the renjin [http://www.renjin.org] project which has been making steady progress implementing the complete functionality of R. For example they now claim that 'most' packages work with it, including many with C/Fortran dependencies.

I tried the online demo. A simple x <- rnorm(1000) was VERY slow (it took a couple of seconds). Any idea why? It did not seem to be initial-class-loading one-time issues; the slowness persisted upon retrying.

Very cool project, but sadly it's not able to plot graphs.
