Hmmm. Not seeing a ton of ways to optimize, but it might depend on
your total usage scenario. How many of these types of table/plot
combinations are you creating? Just a couple sets, or a lot?
The plot command is the only one that looks inefficient since a babel
block with :file header would automate opening/closing a device... If
you defined your data.frame in another babel block and used the
:session argument, you could do something like this:
#+name: plot
#+header: :file /path/to/file.png :width 1600 :height 900 :res 200
#+begin_src R :session r :exports results :results output graphics
plot(data)
#+end_src
After that executes, you'll end up with a named results block which
you can manually add the #+caption to? I typically use something like
the above. Your solution is nice as one could add things like
#+attr_latex or #+begin/end_center code via the paste() function in
R... while mine saves having to manually do pnt(); plot(); dev.off().
Another option might be to generate all your plots in a loop, perhaps,
and then stick to just programmatically including them with Org
syntax? I essentially did that here:
- http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2012-08/msg01167.html
Not really much different than what your'e doing, though, I suppose.
It would just scale nicely if you have various data sets and always
generate a table and plot from them all. Then you could create your
data.frames in a list and then lapply() through them with each of your
functions, printing the proper Org syntax as the result (with :results
drawer, as you're already using).
This thread also came to mind, as I was reusing lines like you are,
and keeping them in separate babel blocks. I got the suggestion to
call a named block, which might be of interest if you've not done that
before?

- Using a #+call line:

Sorry I can't be of more help!
