Slow sampling in pymc3 (on "tutorial problem")

Questions
3

I tried to remove the find_MAP start condition, and use the default step, method (e.g. no step argument), see code below.

import pymc3 as pm
import theano.tensor as tt

temperature = data[:,0].astype(float)
D = data[:,1].astype(float)

with pm.Model() as model:

    beta = pm.Normal('beta', 0, 0.001, testval=0)
    alpha = pm.Normal('alpha', 0,0.001, testval =0)
    p = pm.Deterministic('p',1.0/(1.+tt.exp(beta*temperature + alpha)))

    observed = pm.Bernoulli('bernoulli_obs',p,observed=D)
    trace = pm.sample(120000)

But still, sampling rate is only below 100draws/s. Do you have another idea?

EDIT:
I should mention mention that when loading pymc3 I get the warning shown at the bottom of this page, I mentions severe performance degradation…
Hence, I tried to install “m2w64-toolchain”, but then hell broke loose and I couldn’t get pymc running at all no more (sry, no errors logged, sth. about theano initialization was not right…)

After re-installing everything (including anaconda) I am now back at the same place that I was…

I am quite desperate, I would really like to learn more about this technique, but waiting 5 min for every beginners mistake I have to uncover is unbearable…

best regards
