Hi,
I have a panel dataset of about 3800 cases over 12 years (45625
observations). I'm estimating fixed effects models, so I assume that
adds unit dummies. I enter year dummies manually. I also have some
"growth cells" that are dummies (768 in total). Altogether, my
variables, unit dummies, year dummies, and growth cells = just shy of
4600 variables. My system has .99GB Ram. The data file is 39873KB. I
have set maxvar, memory, and matsize to various sizes. I either get
the "no room to add more variables due to width" or it takes an
eternity to run the model--longer than I want to wait. Any ideas? Do
I need more memory?
Thanks,
John Worrall
