 From the point of view of ESS: press C-g while the computation is  
running to get control over Emacs again. The only problem is really  
that a "computing" R process blocks the help system since it uses R  
to search the help pages.

I am only mentioning this because I recently heard some people being  
unaware of it.

You can also do a C-c C-c (I think, it is in my hands :) to actually  
stop the computation.
