diag function

@privefl That is perfectly fine with me. The only thing I am suggesting is wrapping those lines in a `diag` method so a user can simply call ```r diag(big_mat) ```...

as.big.matrix() with type "raw"

Hence the perpetual need for more unit tests :)

timeline for big.sparse.matrix support?

Hi @YaohuiZeng, as @privefl said Mike and I quite busy. I would love to give more attention to this package but I am quite busy with other work related matters...

timeline for big.sparse.matrix support?

@privefl That may lead to some performance gains with *only* customized functions but won't provide any actual compression (i.e. save memory footprint) or an ability to interface nicely with other...

Support for Long Vectors?

If I recall, the main limitation with `long` vectors had to do with the BLAS backends. Maybe certain BLAS support this and the installation can be conditional upon that? The...

Support for Long Vectors?

Perhaps that can be the thought then. If we can setup some sort of configuration at compile time to somehow detect what the BLAS backend is we could have the...

Non-contiguous sub.big.matrix?

@kaneplusplus why is it that it won't work with bigalgebra? That seems like a pretty large constraint if you want to do anything with the data other than some minimal...

Non-contiguous sub.big.matrix?

@privefl Thanks for jumping in, contributions are always welcome. However as noted by Mike this is available via `deepcopy`. The reason I created this issue was it would be ideal...

format='p' not rounding all axis values with same precision

I have also seen this happening. Is there any current working solution?

Allow implementation of as() and wrap() functions

@rstub thanks for the suggestions. This certainly gives me some ideas with a way to extend RViennaCL further. Once I get some time I will create a new branch and...
