This is V 4.1. I have recompiled the NONMEM files and put together another version of the help folder for other Macintosh/NONMEM users. Again the results are good (I think). I was able to optimize some files I couldn't before and not optimize one or two that optimized with v4.0 of the compiler. Oh well. The test runs are a little faster. I used the sample runs presented in: NONMEM User's Guide Part III (Nov 92) Page 3. Using the NONMEM20-25 files. ------------------------------------------------------ Time (sec) File Size for Memory NONMEM Allocation set by compiler/linker ------------------------------------------------------ PRED 13 576K 1217K ADVAN2 20 576K 1217K ADVAN7 143 585K 1217K ADVAN6 216 585K 1217K :-) ------------------------------------------------------ as benchmarks. The timings etc. are shown above for a PowerMac6100/60AV. Times are about half the 1992 benchmark values. I've put together a few files including the make files for the Absoft compiler for the PowerMac v4.1.
