Looking for a book for better coding - preferably functional
For writing faster code, the first thing you want to try is making sure it's properly vectorised. See The R Inferno for this. Some problems are more difficult than others to vectorise. When vectorisation is impossible, you probably want to interface with C++. First, check if there's already a fast package that serves your needs. If your problem is too specific, consider writing your own C++ code with Rcpp.

Vectorized function VS Loops
I understand the sentiment and I'm not trying to convince you to start writing optimised code to save ~2ms. There's a ton of optimised tools that I don't use myself because the time benefit is immaterial for what I do.
