    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi James,<br>
      <br>
      nice to hear that you figured out what the problem was. It's
      strange that the SCIP_CALL seems to mess up your profiling, I did
      not experience this before. Did you do the profiling using the
      OPT=prf option?<br>
      <br>
      Recently, I prefer using valgrind --tool=callgrind. It is quite
      slow, but gives you good output, you can even use the opt-mode,
      but should compile with USROFLAGS="-g".<br>
      <br>
      Best,<br>

        <div>I finally got to the bottom of this. Some of the functions
          my "ChordalSeparate" function was calling returned
          SCIP_RETCODE and were wrapped inside a SCIP_CALL. These
          functions did not appear</div>
        <div>in the output from the profile. I altered them to be
          'normal' functions and called them without the SCIP_CALL
          wrapping. After doing this they appeared as expected in the
          profile output and my constraint handler's</div>
        <div>lock method ( consLockChordal ) only showed up as being
          called twice. So everything now makes sense.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>One thing perhaps noting, my original approach - where the
          functions were wrapped inside a SCIP_CALL - was a bit silly:
          there was no point doing this wrapping and the SCIP* pointer I
          sent to the functions</div>
        <div>was not even used in them. (An earlier version had done
          some SCIPallocMemoryArray calls but I then removed these.)
          Perhaps this weird code somehow confused the profiling.</div>

              this looks unexpected. Your separator adds constraints of
              your constraints handler and no rows? Then, the CONSLOCK
              callback of your constraint handler is called whenever a
              constraint is added to update the rounding locks of
              variables in the constraint. Could there be a performance
              issue in that CALLBACK implementation?<br>
