XSLP_BARSTALLINGOBJLIMIT, SLPBARSTALLINGOBJLIMIT

Description
Number of iterations over which to measure the objective change for barrier iterations with no crossover
Type
Integer
Default value
3
Note
On large problems, it may be beneficial to warm start progress by running a number of iterations with the barrier solver without crossover by setting XSLP_BARLIMIT to a positive value and setting XPRS_CROSSOVER to 0. A potential drawback is slower convergence due to the interior point provided by the barrier solve keeping a higher number of variables active. This may lead to stalling in progress, negating the benefit of using the barrier. When in the last XSLP_BARSTALLINGOBJLIMIT iterations no significant progress has been made, crossover is automatically enabled.
