Text once models can be pre-compiled

The first time you fit a model with {epinowcast} will be slow compared to future fits! This is normal as all of the Stan code is being compiled for the first time. Note that the compiled Stan binaries will live in your user package directory (or wherever you have defined your package libraries). Because of this package architecture

  • Each time you install a new version of {epinowcast} you will experience this longer compilation time the first time you fit a model.
  • If you upgrade your version of CmdStan, you will likely need to recompile your models. This may occur automatically, or necessitate re-installing {epinowcast}.
