    I would like to know if the algorithm applied for the relaxations generated at root node is governed by parameter CPX_PARAM_STARTALG or CPX_PARAM_SUBALG in a MIP optimization. That is:
    Parallel mode: deterministic, using up to 4 threads.
    Root relaxation solution time =    1.17 sec.                                    <--- STARTALG

    It is the SUBALG. Basically, whenever there is a feasible starting basis at hand we use SUBALG. If not, we use STARTALG. Typically, the only time where there is no starting basis available is the initial root LP solve, so STARTALG is only used once.
