I am using MOSEK and CVX to fit a function to a given data, and in many cases MOSEK is able to solve linear feasibility problem during presolve. I was wondering if I could find a feasible solution without using MOSEK based on this knowledge. I am attaching the solver log below. Thanks.
Calling Mosek 7.1.0.12: 20000 variables, 500 equality constraints
For improved efficiency, Mosek is solving the dual problem.
