Table 2 Timings for Nassau simulations with different population structures

Population structure	FLUTE	FRED	SID
Randomized	108	91	95
Original RTI sequence	101	94	92
[Household]	94	86	87
[Household, Day ]	93	80	87
[Day]	89	80	82
[Day, Household ]	81	69	78

Results in seconds with R ₀ = 1.4 and seeding rate = 1e ⁻⁴ (AR = ±62%). E.g., [Day, Household] represents populations sorted according to day cluster (first) and household (second)
