Cross-chain warmup adaptation using MPI

I’m attaching a poster by me, @billg, @bbbales2, @avehtari for ACoP 11 last week. In that poster we shows

  • cross-chain warmup’s performance on a bunch of models from posteriodb.
  • how cross-chain warmup can be combined with within-chain parallelization in a multi-level parallel framework.

Corresponding repo can be found at https://github.com/metrumresearchgroup/acop_2020_torsten_parallelization.

Based on the benchmark in the study I plan to add cross-chain warmup as experimental feature in next Torsten release.
