Re: [Help-glpk] Memory usage with glpk

[Saint Of Me]

I use .glp model but when I run it, it doesn't write a file that is writing using .mod file. How I can do to write the file using .glp model?
To write file I use:

printf{c in COLS}: "%d ", w[c] > "w_ijcnn1_val";

printf{r in ROWS, c in COLS}: "%f ", Data[r,c] > "Data_ijcnn1_val";
printf{r in ROWS}: "%f \n", sum {c in COLS} w[c] * Data[r,c] > "wtData_ijcnn1_val";

If all data fit into RAM, preliminary model conversion is not needed.

For model having 56000 columns and 80000 rows 17 Mb of file and 44.8 Mb
of RAM don't seem very high. Note that the LP preprocessor keeps a copy
of the model, so disabling it (--nopresol) may reduce the memory needed
about twice. However, most of the memory is eaten up by the MathProg
translator.
