Further to my previous message, the next release of spdep will have time 
savings like from 1000 seconds reduced to 300 seconds on a 3500 polygon 
data set. Thanks for pointing this out, with Rprof(), it wasn't difficult 
to find a cheap way to economise (only check storage mode once per 
polygon).
