[Ipopt] configuring with MKL BLAS/PARDISO

Hi Sean,

MKL Pardiso has quite a hit getting started, due to setting up the required
threads. Therefore if your problem is small, this can dominant the solving
time. However for large problems it 'should' be faster, given it is
parallelized.

What size problems have you tested it on?

Jonathan

I found Ipopt to run much slower with MKL Pardiso than with MA27 (w MC19).
Is this inline with others experience?  It's not what I expected.
