Dear SPM list,

maybe I'm slightly confused, but currently I'm trying to optimise the speed
of SPM2 analysis.

System:
Pentium 4 XEON, 2.8 GHz, Hyperthreading enabled, 4 GByte RAM

Matlab 6.5.1.199701 (R13) Service Pack 1
August 4, 2003

Windows XP

I followed the steps as kindly described on
http://www.mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk/Imaging/Common/spm_intel_tune.shtml

That means, I used the Windows precompiled altas library for P4SSE2, as well
as the Windows mex files for P4s delivered with SPM2.

Indeed, the speed-test programs show a huge speed-up for the NaN-problem.

However, the sparse matrix problem still persists, i.e. the sparse matrix is
slower by a factor of 122 than a full matrix. The suggested solution is
given only for SPM99. Is there any workaround for SPM2 as well? I'm not that
familiar with MATLAB programming that I would change spm-code without
exactly knowing what I am doing :-)

I already searched the archive and the web but didn't find a solution.

Thanks a lot,
Andre
