Oct 7, 2015 at 2:12 comment added Brian Borchers For SDP, the matrix that has to be factored in each iteration is most often dense and the Cholesky factorization parallelizes well on a shared memory machine. The construction of this matrix is also fairly easy to parallelize. Thus it's possible to get reasonably good parallel speedups on a shared memory multiprocessor with an interior point method for SDP with numbers of processors up to about 64 (as far as I've gone.)
Oct 7, 2015 at 2:09 comment added Brian Borchers Parallelizing IPM's for LP boils down to parallelizing the sparse Cholesky factorization. This is not a well saved problem, particularly on GPU's. Parallelizing simplex methods for LP is much harder and there's been very little useful work in that area- if you want to solve a large scale LP in parallel you'll probably want to use an IPM.
