Thanks. Was wondering if this was about my federal thrift savings plan.

Also compare with LKH3 which seems much faster and closer to optimal.

Sorry if I am harsh, but a 1200 node tsp problem is a toy problem. We can find proven optimal solutions to these in a fraction of the time you spent.
RL is probably best suited for uncertainty infected instances.

Out of curiosity I solved it with the concorde solver in the Neos server.
In 58s its heuristic found a solution 0.037% away from optimal, and in 943s it found and proved the optimal solution.
