Fastest simplex algorithm package (faster than linprog) ?

Dear Arne,
Dear R-SIGs,

Thanks a lot for your suggestion.
I replaced "linprog" by "lpSolve".
The calculation time for my simplex problem
went down from 180 to 54 seconds :-)

54 seconds is still rel. long
for the surfers to wait for the server to respond.
Isn't there a faster way to calculate my simplex ?

I ported my simplex problem to windows and
calculated it with "whatsbest" from "LINDO SYSTEMS INC":
http://www.lindo.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=3&Itemid=11
Here it takes 1 second.
So there must be a faster way for calculating my problem.
Does anybody have any idea ?

Is the calculation time from "lpSolve"
depending on the OS (Linux or Windows) ?

Are there maybe any "preprocessors" out there,
which have a look to the simplex problem and
simplify it anyhow before running the simpex algo ?

Thanks and all the best,
Uwe
