Subject: Re: NONMEM on the PowerMac
Hello again
Absoft has come up with another version of their FORTRAN compiler for the Macintosh. 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.

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. These are available at:
