Using -mfx- after running a regression with -xtlogit- _does_ work, but it
normally takes far too long if your original model contains a large number
of observations; and I speak from bitter experience. A quicker alternative
is to use Tamas Bartus' -margin-, downloadable from SSC.
Note, however, that -margin- calculates the _average_ marginal effects
across all observations, and _not_ the marginal effect at the mean of
independent variables, which, by default, -mfx- calculates. It's your call
as to which of these is preferable to you.
