GAMS-IDE

Appearance

Data Panel Configuration ​

The Data Panel is a powerful feature but can be resource-intensive. It is disabled by default.

Enabling the Data Panel ​

To turn it on, enable the following setting:

gamsIde.parseGamsData ​

  • Default: false
  • Effect: After every run, GAMS-IDE parses the GDX/Reference file to populate the Data Panel.

Performance Tuning ​

If you experience slow performance/execution, consider these settings:

gamsIde.parseGamsDataResLim ​

  • Description: Sets a resource limit (Time Limit) for the data parsing run.
  • Usage: Prevents the parsing from hanging if the model is accidentally too large.

gamsIde.consoleLimrow / gamsIde.consoleLimcol ​

  • Description: Limits the number of rows/columns displayed for large parameters.
  • Default: 3 (Review the first 3 elements).

WARNING

Enabling parseGamsData runs a special GAMS execution in the background. For extremely large models, this might double the effective run time or consume significant RAM.
