[Clp] Do I need Lapack/BLAS

[Haroldo Santos]

Dear All,

Some time ago I asked what differences could have a CLP build including
Lapack from another without.
I was informed that Lapack would allow a better performance in the case of
having some dense matrix.

Since Lapack increases the build size/dependencies, I would like to know if
there is an easy way to determine if it is being activated for a given
linear program (e.g., by looking at the terminal output).

Anyone has benchmarks indicating how much does it helps ?
In common benchmarks, for instance:
http://plato.asu.edu/ftp/milpf.html
It is activated ? Would it help in these problems ?

Thanks,

Haroldo
