## 2024-05-15 - [R Performance: ifelse Overhead]
**Learning:** In R, ifelse evaluates both true and false branches entirely before subsetting, which is very inefficient for vector operations.
**Action:** Optimize this by preallocating with res <- Y * 0 to preserve attributes and using vectorized subsetting like if any cond res subset <- ...
## 2026-08-11 - Safe type deduction using vapply
**Learning:** In R codebases, using `sapply` over a list involves significant overhead to deduce and simplify the return type in interpreted code.
**Action:** When the return type and length are known, always prefer `vapply(..., FUN.VALUE = type)` over `sapply(...)` for better performance and strict type safety.
