Oops. I didn't clear timers between runs of my do file, so timer 1 shows two runs; the time for each is about 112 seconds.

I see something similar, except that the first version completes and gives the same results as the 10.1 version.
*********************
timer on 1
fracpoly: logistic foreign mpg, adjust(no) degree(4)
timer off 1
sysuse auto, clear
version 10.1
timer on 2
fracpoly: logistic foreign mpg, adjust(no) degree(4)
timer off 2
timer list
***********************
yields:
timer list
1: 223.83 / 2 = 111.9145
2: 1.04 / 1 = 1.0410

Hi,
I observe a curious behavior of frapoly with Stata 11 :
when I use the command fracpoly logistic Y X, adjust(no) degree(4) where Y is a 0/1 variable
the dot-line begins indicating the progression of the computation, then stops and the program seems to be blocked
On the contrary, with the commands
version 10.1
fracpoly logistic Y X, adjust(no) degree(4)
the computation begins seems much more quick at the beginning and, what is more important, provides a result.
Is there an explanation ?
Thanks
Jean
