Switch to JLD2 about cosmo.jl HOT 4 CLOSED

Hey, yes. I am already using JLD2 for benchmarks with the Julia v1.0 version of the solver. There might be some old benchmarks that havent been updated though.

from cosmo.jl.

Can you roughly point to the benchmarks/branches that you have already updated? I can't see any on devel.

from cosmo.jl.

I have a separate repo for benchmarks now since I feel like the solver repo should only contain the solver code + the unit tests. We don't want everyone that adds the package to their Julia installation to download all the benchmark files.

We should update the existing benchmarks to work with Julia 1.0 and JLD2 and move them to the benchmark repo before we release the solver.

Great, thanks, this could be very helpful for me.

So currently there exist:

• Benchmarks inside the QOCS repo
• The SDP_Benchmark_Problems repo
• The QOCS_Benchmarks repo.

I would be up for merging them into one external repo, as you suggested.

Also if we have a JuMP interface for our solver, we could call QOCS via JuMP in the benchmarks, thus making the benchmarks completely independent of the internals of our solver.

Let's discuss that in more detail when I get back to Oxford.
