Benchmarks for Optimization Software

By Hans Mittelmann (mittelmann at asu.edu)


END OF A BENCHMARKING ERA
For many years our benchmarking effort had included the solvers CPLEX, Gurobi, and XPRESS. Through an action by Gurobi at the 2018 INFORMS Annual Meeting this has come to an end. IBM and FICO demanded that results for their solvers be removed. See here for more details. The resulting void was filled by other developers.
In August 2024 Gurobi decided to withdraw from the benchmarks as well and their results have been removed. On 12/24/2024 MindOpt followed suit.

Note that on top of the benchmarks a link to logfiles is given!

Note also that we do not use performance profiles. See this paper and that one

We use instead the shifted geometric mean
