Dear Statalister,
I am eager to know any faster alternatives to -collapse-, because I have
to summarize relatively large data sets for a simulation study. -profiler-
is telling me that most of the computation burden comes from -collapse-.
Do you know (have) any faster alternative? Perhaps a plug-in?
Thanks!
Tiago
