Not reproducible ... ? Have you tried scaling back the problem and seeing if it works reasonably with smaller data sets? Can you extrapolate from several smaller data sets how long you think it will take? If you can convince yourself that it will finish in a few days, and you think you only have to do it once, you might just bite the bullet and let it run. Someone who knows a lot more than I do about imputation and its computational difficulty might chime in if you provide a reproducible example. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
