Problem Note 56309: PROC HPCDM processes very slowly or fails to complete or produces incorrect perturbed parameter estimates
 |  |  |  |  |
The HPCDM procedure might fail to complete under the following conditions:
- The NPERTURBEDSAMPLES=n option is specified in the PROC HPCDM statement where n>0, and
- either the COUNTSTORE= option is specified in the PROC HPCDM statement, or a SEVERITYEST= input data set containing covariance estimates is specified.
If execution of the procedure completes under the conditions stated above, the perturbed parameters are incorrect.

A fix for this issue for SAS High-Performance Econometrics Server Components 14.1 is available at:
https://tshf.sas.com/techsup/download/hotfix/HF2/V31.html#56309
PROC HPCDM might seem to hang when a perturbation analysis is requested using either a COUNTSTORE= input data set or a SEVERITYEST= input data set that contains covariance parameters. If the procedure completes under these conditions, the perturbed parameter estimates are incorrect.
