Mark, To the extent that it may be helpful here and I can do more if need be, I built 32 bit R 2.12.0 patched on Snow Leopard (10.6.4), using the R BLAS rather than Apple's veclib. This is on an early 2009 17 MBP with a 2.93 Ghz Core 2 Duo (MacBookPro5,2) and 4Gb of RAM. Based upon

I only installed the binary lme4 for the R2.12.0. After I remove the lme4, I change to the R BLAS and reinstall the binary lme4. The results are always true now. Hope this information is useful. Huang On Thu, Oct 21, 2010 at 11:11 PM, Marc Schwartz marc_schwa...@me.comwrote: On Oct 21, 2010,

Let me point out https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-mac/2010-July/007608.html This is not just a BLAS issue: I saw it with both vecLib and the reference BLAS. The lme4 code is doing exactly the same calculation for M2. and M2, but sometimes when it does that calculation the first time in

Interesting. No matter what I do here, I can't seem to get the test to fail using R's BLAS with clean 32 bit builds. So perhaps it is not just the BLAS, but a combination of R's BLAS and specific hardware?, which gets me into a realm of knowledge below the event horizon. Have there been any

[R-SIG-Mac] Need help using Rmpi

2010-10-21 Thread Cutler, Gene
I've been trying to get some sort of parallel computing setup running across my two Macs, one with 8 cores the other with 4. So far, I've mainly been trying to get MPI to work, but without a lot of success. For example: Attempt 1: /usr/local/openmpi/bin/mpirun --prefix /usr/local/openmpi

Rmpi needs help (I'd say a bugfix) if your MPI is not lam (and you have not told us). See the Rmpi/README file, but the effect is more serious in 2.12.0 (and the maintainer was informed weeks ago). I don't understand your notation, but am assuming lines starting with # are both your comments
