Understanding DCP in Convex.jl and the difference of elapsed time

You can see why in the log of SCS

nnz in A = 301
Variables n = 101, constraints m = 201

nnz in A = 701
Variables n = 201, constraints m = 401

So the abs version has twice as may variables, twice as many constraints, and more than twice as many non-zeros in the constraint matrix.
