Hello,

Yes, it's possible to remove the loop. Since the loop is used to compute a 
running product and all we want is the final result, use the vectorized 
behavior of R and a final ?prod().
Seedup: another 2x. And 4x2 == 8 == 1 [decimal] order of magnitude.


lf2 <-function (x) {
   v<-1
   x1 <- x[1]
   x2 <- x[2]
   x3 <- x[3]
   x4 <- x[4]
   z1 <- exp(x1+x2*dose)
   z2 <- exp(x3+x4*dose)
   psi0<-1/((1+z1)*(1+z2))
   psi1<-z1*psi0
   v <- (psi0^y0)*(psi1^y1)*((1-psi0-psi1)^y2)
   return( prod(v) )
}

lf2.c <- cmpfun(lf2)

Hope this helps,

Wonderful. It certainly does help.
A single nitpick: the v <- 1 at the start of the function can now be removed.
Yes, I thought about removing it but in the end forgot to.

I got a speedup of 7.5 compared to the very first version lf1.
My system is a Windows 7, R 2.15.1.
