Document Grattan's (Hugh) use of data.table #2862
Description
Awesome work by @HughParsonage. There's reference to things you can do in data.table that you can't do elsewhere, and 2 seconds vs 30 mins.
Would be great to do a proper benchmark and write up where data.table is being used to its fullest and compare to alternatives like dplyr and SQL. It could be a page on the wiki, or an article, or both. It could be linked from our homepage.

@mattdowle Would something like https://hughparsonage.github.io/grattan/articles/datatable-implementation.html be a useful reference? Kept it short and to the point.
