I have added a new function (and some supporting functions) that allow R coders to set the CosmosDB collection throughput from within their R code.

This can help R users be more efficient with their RU's and save money when using Azure. For example, if you're using CosmosDB for cold storage of some data, you can leave the collection set at the lowest throughput (400 RU's). If you want to query the collection, your R code can turn up the throughput right before you run the query (so it will perform faster). Then, once it's done, your R script can immediately scale it back down.

Hopefully this will help our customers realize the promise of cloud computing: Pay only for what you use.
