Construct "implicit sets" for *
Closed this issue · 0 comments

For GAMS parameters declared using the universal set, like parameter foo(*,*,*)
, PyGDX tries to find an existing GAMS set for each dimension indexed by *
. Where no existing set matches, the dimension is left as *
; but when *
has many elements, this results in high memory use when trying to load foo
.
Add code and an option for the File
constructor to create the implicit sets for each dimension of a loaded parameter. For instance, create sets named _foo_1
, _foo_2
, and _foo_3
, so that the parameter is foo(_foo_1,_foo_2,_foo_3)
. This will avoid the memory use problem in most practical situations.
