All excellent points.  Jordi, you should ask for the code.  It really sounds
like something done either naively, or with a goal in mind.  "Rcpp code is
C++ code" so any "N times" is silly -- setup costs, extra copies, ... etc pp.

We may of course copy at the end from, say, bespoke C++ data structures to
ours.  But for any non-trivial example the cost of that will be well under, 
say, 1%
while still getting a "many times" speedup over alternative R solutions.  So
a win for most people.  Hence 1444 packages on CRAN using it. Those people
aren't all fools ...
