Removing timing data from MCMCdiagnostic.txt #612

Closed ianhinder closed 4 years ago

ianhinder commented 4 years ago

Can I remove the writing of the timer to MCMCdiagnostic.txt? It makes the file non-reproducible, which makes regression-testing difficult.

ianhinder commented 4 years ago

In the chrispooley branch, more timing information has been added to this file. Timing information is very useful, so I think it should be kept, but can it be moved to a separate file? That file can then be excluded from regression test comparisons (and maybe used for performance regression tests!).

I've got a version of this locally - it writes the timing information to MCMCdiagnostic_timings.txt. OK to commit it?

Hi,

I've just removed then from the diagstics file, but if you have put them into a different file that is fine too. Really they are useful only to me, and they won't we in the final version of the code.

Thanks
