Subject: multicore lmer: any changes since 2007?
Back in 2007 (http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e2/help/07/05/17777.html)
Dr. Bates suggested that using a multithreaded BLAS was the only
option for speeding lmer computations on multicore machines (and even
then, it might even cause a slow down under some circumstances).
Is this advice still current, or have other means of speeding lmer
computations on multicore machines arisen in more recent years?
Cheers,
Mike
