Updates to Stata/MP were introduced in Stata 12.
ORDER STATA |
Stata/MP takes advantage of your computer’s multicore processors to perform its computations in parallel. Your commands run faster; much faster. You can analyze data in one-half to two-thirds the time on inexpensive dual-core desktops and laptops, in one-quarter to one-half the time on quad-core desktops, and in even less time on workstations and servers with up to 64 cores.
Cores | All Commands |
Estimation Commands |
---|---|---|
2 | 1.6 | 1.8 |
4 | 2.1 | 2.8 |
8 | 2.7 | 4.1 |
Quoted above are median speed-up factors. Half the commands do better than the number reported, and half do worse. |
