Current acceptance ratio-Problem

[econ86]

Dear all,

I have estimated my DSGE model using two versions of Dynare, namely 4.4.3 and unstable version (2016-02-24). I set mh_jscale=0.2.

Dynare version 4.4.3 lead to an acceptance ratio of 0.30, while the unstable version lead to an acceptance ratio which equals to 0.04. What is the reason of such difference?

[jpfeifer]

Hard to tell. There should be no obvious reason. Do you use the same mode?

[econ86]

Yes, I use mode_compute=4 in both cases.

[jpfeifer]

I meant whether the same mode was found in both cases.
