Cut bootstrap trend draws down to what the targets actually need
Source:R/trend_fit.R
thin_trend_draws.RdThe full England grid is 79 ages x 16 years x 2 sexes x 5 quintiles x 3 states. At 1,000 iterations that is roughly 38 million rows, and Tables 7 to 10 need about a tenth of it. Thin before stacking rather than after.
The thinning is checked. A filter that quietly matched nothing would produce a raw bootstrap file that looks fine on disk and is missing a whole table.
