How to prevent SCIP from doing restarts while solving MIPs


I ma trying to solve an MIP and I noticed that sometimes scip restarts the problem again but the restarting does nothing. It spends a bunch of time trying find cuts and it doesn't find any.

The following is the message that comes before the restart is triggered. Is there a way to disable restarting?

Restart triggered after 50 consecutive estimations that the remaining tree will be large
(run 1, node 2309) performing user restart

Solution

  • You can disable restarts by setting

    estimation/restarts/restartpolicy = n
