Hi, Marc.

This topic make me test some models with distinct builds of GLPK:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-glpk/2008-11/msg00026.html

In 2 "good" machines (AMD Athlon64 2.200MHz, 2Gb DDR-400 / Intel Core 2
Duo 2x 2133 MHz, 2Gb DDR2-667), just replacing the glpsol.exe (all
parameters still the same, i'm using all cuts), VS2008 build (from
http://winglpk.sourceforge.net) cannot beat MinGW in all my tests. Off
course, simple models are solved instantaneously, but on some of my huge
problems i can see times like 80s vs 270s, for example.

Maybe we can make a lot of tests and summarize it (using different
machines, some different models from MIPLIB 2003) to be a "pointer" to
users make a choice. Just a pointer, not "the answer to all problems".
Look, maybe a transportation problem in amd processor run faster with
VS2008 build, but a plan scheduling in a intel run better with MinGW build
(or not?).

Best Regards,
Luiz
