Hi,
if found that the easiest way for me doing CGI with R was using the RSPerl package. So i could do all the CGI related things in Perl and call R functions from Perl to do the statistics. You can get RSPerl from http://www.omegahat.org.
If loading the data each time gives a performance problem, i guess that you could use RSPerl together with fastcgi, so the R initialization and loading the data would happen only once. If you try this, i would be very interrested in your experiences.
Regarding initialization, another possibility might be the perl module Statistics::R announced by Graciliano M.P. in an email to r-help on 2004-02-21. See
http://search.cpan.org/~gmpassos/Statistics-R-0.01/
The RSPerl package is somewhat outdated, but it worked well together with R 1.6.0 (i didn't try newer versions).
Christian :-)

Hi R-helpers
Has anyone had any experience doing CGI or Servlets or using an httpd server in R?
yes. See the R FAQ, section 4. (Or maybe you already have, in which case I misunderstood the question...)
Best wishes, David
