CPLEX acquires maximal number of threads on system

[fichtejo]

The Cplex Backend (cplex_backend.pxd) allows CPLEX to invoke the maximum number of threads on the system. This might be quite difficulty on a cluster, e.g. condor managed system.

See #10785

Already found the parameter its:

int CPX_PARAM_THREADS = 1067

PXsetintparam(....,CPX_PARAM_THREADS, #Params);

We could add a parameter to MixedIntegerLinearProgram?(..., solver_parameter=Params(#Threads...)...)?

This could be made *much* easier with #10785, which has been waiting for a review for 9 months now :-p

Hey cool, 

I'll try to review that one in the next two weeks. :-)

We can close this one, because ​#10785 does it even better.

"Dear release manager, could you please close this ticket as a duplicate ?" :-)

To catch the release manager's attention, you need to set it to positive review, IIRC.

That's totally wrong, I'm told one needs to sing and dance around a fire until the Release Manager comes :-)

and put the milestone to sage-duplicate/invalid/wontfix please, so I know there is nothing to be done besides closing this ticket.
