\title{
The Rsolnp Benchmark Problems Suite.
}
\description{
The function implements a set of benchmark problems against the MINOS solver of
Murtagh and Saunders.
}
\usage{
benchmark(id = "Powell")
}
\arguments{
\item{id}{
The name of the benchmark problem. A call to the function \code{\link{benchmarkids}}
will return the available benchmark problems.
}
}
\details{
The benchmarks were run on dual xeon server with 24GB of memory and windows 7
operating system. The MINOS solver was used via the tomlab interface.
}
\value{
A data.frame containing the benchmark data. The description of the benchmark
problem can be accessed throught the \code{description} attribute of
the data.frame.
