Wns fast

[larsvilhuber]

@sextonw @wns32 : Could you adjust the pull request to use directory programs/ not newprograms/ ? this replaces the existing programs, not adds new programs. I can't do that during the pull request.

[sextonw]

@larsvilhuber Yes, I'll take care of that.

The old code is available either as branch "oldcode" or as release https://github.com/labordynamicsinstitute/SynUSpopulation/tree/v201703-beta if needed.

Ok. I think c29103f should do it. I'll update the readme soon to reflect the major differences in versions. The 2 main ones though are: 1) Recode of race vars was removed because it didn't meet the needs our collaborators. We may revisit this in the future but the recodes were only added for a specific use case that is no longer revelant because the race codes are changing on the 2020 census. 2) The 'id' var values have changed though the variable still serves the same purpose. It uniquely identifies replicated individuals with replicated households. Household 'ids' now have the form serialno.replicationno This change was necessary to facilitate a significant restructuring of the code. The big difference now is that rep_syn_housing and rep_syn_person can now be run simultaneously. Each now take about 3 hours to complete putting the total runtime of all programs around 3.5 hrs.

I'm going offline now.

Looks good to me. The comments address all my questions. Updates to the README coming.
