-------------------------------------------------------
Although the bug that triggered this issue is fixed, failures of the unit test
still miss an explanation...
The poor performance is to be expected given the current state of the code
(e.g. many matrix calculations are done explicitly, with getters and setters,
instead of calling methods of the matrix objects).

> Key: MATH-728
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-728
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.0
> Environment: Mac Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build
> 1.6.0_29-b11-402-11M3527)
> Reporter: Bruce A Johnson
> Fix For: 3.0
>
>
> I've been having trouble getting BOBYQA to minimize a function (actually a
> non-linear least squares fit) so as one change I increased the number of
> interpolation points. It seems that anything larger than 2*dim+1 causes an
> error (typically at
> line 1662
> interpolationPoints.setEntry(nfm, ipt,
> interpolationPoints.getEntry(ipt, ipt));
> I'm guessing there is an off by one error in the translation from FORTRAN.
> Changing the BOBYQAOptimizerTest as follows (increasing number of
> interpolation points by one) will cause failures.
