Shiny versus NONMEM® + R processing: comparisona of run times

Methodb IV loading-bolus-bolus (20–10-10 mg/kg) (seconds) IV loading-continuous infusion (16–24 mg/kg) (seconds)
NONMEM® + R Processingc ≈ 385 ≈ 366
Shiny: one core ≈ 103 ≈ 60
Shiny: four cores, compiled functions ≈ 35 ≈ 27
a

Based on application Example 3 with n = 1,000 and evaluations at 15-min intervals over 72 h.
