�for solving geometric programs. Its native
support for the exponential cone ensures the best reliability, accuracy,
and speed. For other solvers, CVX must
use the successive approximation technique described in <a class="reference internal" href="advanced.html#successive"><em>The successive approximation method</em></a>.
This means that solving GPs can be slow, but for small and medium sized problems,
the method works well.</p>
