Thanks to earlier responses I have the sire model working and it took about 10
minutes per iteration. I then added the maternal grandsire (same factor as sire,
~10800 levels) without fitting the covariance and it seems to be converging but
taking about 1 day per iteration. I also had to increase memory at least 4-fold
(-s5 to -s7). I'm puzzled at the great increase in memory and time - am I
expecting too much of this model? The mgs factor has some missings and I'm not
sure what the program does with those records? Thanks.
