saving / loading models

Hello all,

Thanks for all the work on OpenMx!

I know about mxSave and mxRestore, but when I run mxRestore I still have to use mxRun to compute all the numerical derivs before I can print a summary() of the model's results. This can take a while if I am reading in many models.

Would it be possible for mxSave and mxRestore to also save/restore the derivs that are computed in the last step? This way I can run a model, save it, and then instantly load it later when I want to work with the results.

Thanks for your time!
Kyle

Yes, that's the plan, [230](https://github.com/OpenMx/OpenMx/issues/230)

Save for gradients and vcov is implemented, but not restore. It wouldn't take much work to implement restore. Patches welcome.
