We have pretty good support for R. Importing libraries is a little bit hacky atm, but we can help with it. On the other hand, Enso-R runs up to 25 TIMES faster than GNU-R (benchmarks: https://github.com/oracle/fastr), which makes it amazingly suitable for building R-based workflows.

Two main approaches. There is renjin which an implementation of R on the JVM https://www.renjin.org/. You can also have a look at https://github.com/oracle/fastr which is an implementation of R on GraalVM.

Azul JDK with Shenandoah is good. I would set the Xms low as explained here. I used GraalVM on my old laptop and found it similarly performant if you're interested.

FWIW - from my testing with with BetterFPS's own tester, using GraalVM gives much better sin/cos performance than any of BetterFSP's algorithms do on vanilla java/openjdk, with all algorithms (including vanilla one) performing almost exactly the same results.

4. The rest (approx 200Mb) are core Enso libraries and tooling.
We will be able to cut it down in the future as soon as we release Enso Marketplace which would allow you to install these things on-demand.
