Question:
Hello,
I´m running the SNP optimizer and the solution is ok at the end, but it last for a long time in order to get the solution (around 6 hours).
We are running the optimizer for some like 4,000 SNP orders with 2 level components.
Besides to check only the required parameters in the Optimizer, what else can I do in order to short the planning run time ???.
Any ideas ???.
Regards,

Answer:
Could be a lot of things, for example it depends on the optimization technique you are using, linear is usually quicker than discretization. If you are using discretization then the more discrete functions you use the longer it will take, recommend no more than 2!!
Answer:
Thanks Parksy,
I will try both options to check which one is the required depending on the client.
Anyway, imagine that I need discretional, and need more than 2 functions, hat else can I check in order to make it faster ??.
Thanks.
Answer:
Could you try to see if you can apply parallel processing of the back ground job for the Optimizer run. I heard this technique reduces a lot of time and gives results much faster. You can find out more at

Hope this helps

Answer:
You can try running parellel processing else ask good basis guy to help on hardware and find out hard ware related issue. This is comman to have such kind of long runs in optmization. you need to cut out after some time
