Hi,
I couldn't find an exact answer to this question so far.

The Matlab cplex interface 12.3 returns in its output struct an algorithm execution time. I was wondering how cplex does measure this time.
Is this the time the underlying function needs for solving only or is the whole function call measured which would also take the time for reallocating memory into account.
From the output in Matlab I assumed its only solving and the additional overhead from the Matlab interface should not be present. Is that right?
This would mean if I switch to the C interface I could expect these solving times?

Thanks for any help!

The time is the alogrithm time, for example, if you are solving a MIP, then the time is the execute time of CPXmipopt, don't contain the time of building model and returning solution time.

Hi John,
thanks for the reply. So I guess my assumption was right.
