Parallelize jags.samples #4

Closed psolymos closed 8 years ago

psolymos commented 8 years ago

Add a new function parJagsSamples, see thread here.

This should be straightforward based on parCodaSamples.

Also check if this could solve the problem of setting monitors for deviance and dP when running parallel. (Maybe not, see Martyn's note: The pD monitor requires (at least) two chains running in the same process.)

No clear use case, codaSamples and parCodaSamples are a good enough wrapper returning mcmc.list.
