    I am asking you because i have a big problem. With very small
    alteration in data operation time goes from 9' to 65' !!!<br>
    <br>
    Any recommendations on the way i solve the model? <br>
    Do you think that the above times are normal for such a model?<br>

      Hi all,<br>
      <br>
      i am a student in the final phase of the Milp model which i want
      to solve.<br>
      <br>
      So, i have a milp model<br>
      columns: 46614<br>
      integers:&nbsp; 12540 (binary)<br>
      rows:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 40842<br>
      nonzeros:117823<br>
      <br>
      I tried these simple methods <br>
      1.<br>
      <i><small>solver1.loadProblem(numcols, numrows, start, index,
          value, collb, colub, obj, rowlb, rowub);<br>
          solver1.initialSolve();<br>
          solver1.branchAndBound() ;</small></i><br>
      2.<br>
      <i><small>solver1.loadProblem(numcols, numrows, start, index,
          value, collb, colub, obj, rowlb, rowub);<br>
          CbcModel model(solver1);<br>
          CbcMain0(model);<br>
          const char * argv2[]={"DAS","-solve","-quit"};&nbsp;&nbsp; </small></i>-&gt;


      <u>i don't know what this do.</u><i><small><br>
          CbcMain1(3,argv2,model);&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br>
          <br>
        </small></i><small><big>Since i am an amateur, can you help me?<br>
          What method should i use to solve the model? 1,2 or something
          else?<br>
          Any recommendations?<br>
          <br>
          The 1st takes an hour and stops.<br>
          The 2nd takes either 8' or 35' depending on the data.<br>
          <br>
          Your help is much appreciated.<span class="HOEnZb"><font
