Concorde Benchmarks (from 2003)

We report below the performance of Concorde (03.12.19) on a subset of 87 of the easier TSPLIB instances. These instances are all those that could be solved in under 1,000 seconds on a Compaq XP1000 workstation using the (99.12.15) version of Concorde. A full set of TSPLIB benchmarks for Concorde (99.12.15) can be found on the Benchmarks-99.12.15 page.

The benchmark runs reported below were carried out on a single processor of a dual-processor 2.8 GHz Intel Xeon PC with a 533 MHz front-side-bus and 2 GByte of RAM. The ILOG CPLEX (Version 6.5) linear programming solver was used in these computations.

For each instance we give the number of CPU seconds used in the computation and the the number of nodes in the branch-and-bound search tree. The benchmark runs were carried out with the default version of Concorde (for more difficult instances, the running times can often be improved by using the options "-m -C 24" or greater to invoke multiple passes of the local-cuts routine).
