Comment (by ccoptimizer):

 Thanks for the discussion.

 After researching some paper, I find the IPOPT inexact algorithm is mostly
 described here: http://www.optimization-
 online.org/DB_FILE/2011/04/2992.pdf

 It seems that they used the general-purpose preconditioner provided by
 Pardiso in IPOPT.
 That's probably the reason for your case, since a good preconditioner is
 quite problem dependent.

 I actually want to push my quadratic programming faster in IPOPT by using
 the iterative linear solver. At this point I would rather to follow other
 paper (e.g. http://www.maths.ed.ac.uk/~gondzio/reports/mtxFree.pdf)
 focusing on QP.  I will let you if I make any progress there. Thanks.
