[Coin-discuss] BCP questions (in parallel)

[Matthew Galati]

-- Is there any easy way to get the total wall clock time spent by BCP 
running in parallel? It looks (to me) like the final statistics are 
total CPU time (not wall clock) and

TM/BCP_tm_user.cpp:      printf("TM: Running time: %.3f\n", 
CoinCpuTime() - p->start_time);

seems to report the time spent in the final node only (?), not from the 
start of the algorithm.


-- With DoBranchAndCut = 0, BCP (in parallel) seems to print something 
about "Heuristics Finished" and then exits immediately. What is this 
parameter suppose to do?


Thanks,
Matt
