the yalmiptime and solvertime

[lzc100]

Hi Johan,
I am confused about whether the yamliptime should be included in the evaluation of solution efficiency, or only solvertime should be considered. In other words, if I build the model in the native way of solver, is there be no modeling time when solving the problem.
Thanks

Modelling time is completely unrelated to solver efficiency. It is not the solvers fault that yalmip might have large overhead.

So if I want to compare the solution efficiency of the interior point method I wrote in MATLAB with yamlip , I should only compare it with solvertime, is it right?

You don't compare it with yalmip, you compare it with the solver you are using.

got it, thanks a lot
