Do you have a repo for this project? I would encourage you to work in the open, if you're not already. Even a BOM would be helpful. Also understanding the post-processing/cleanup step would be interesting.

1000x slowdown is bad but not a complete deal breaker. Do you have a sense of what a reasonable achievable factor is? Do you have sense for how long before we get to that achievable factor?

I'm not sure I had a well formed question. I saw the post title, didn't get a clarification in the article and started searching. The entropy rate seems like a pretty natural definition of "entropy of a Markov chain", no

OK, no, I'm wrong. The entropy of a Markov chain with stationary distribution v is [0]: -\sum v_i p_{i,j} \log(p_{i,j}) That is, the "entropy" of the transition matrix modified by the stationary distribution. [0] h
