Started playing (or intended to). I started a simple cross-validation (5-fold) on a 80000-feature dataset (not much useful signal in it). I was curious to see how ENET performs. However, I started it on Monday and it is still not done. What is the perceived speed of the R implementation in comparison to other classifiers?
