How can I avoid nested 'for' loops or quicken the process?

The apply-functions do bring speed-advantages.

This is not only what I read about it,
I have used the apply-functions and really got
results faster.

The reason is simple: an apply-function does
make in C, what otherwise would be done on the level of R
with for-loops.
