Inequality vs equality constrains.
Is there a big computational advantage by explicitly converting your problem to standard form via slack variables before passing it to solver instead of solver doing it for you?
I wouldn’t do any transformation myself. Any reasonable implementation should do the necessary transformations for you automatically, and do it in a way that is the best from the implementation’s point of view.
In short, pose your problem the way it is natural for you and leave the rest up to the solver. Even the performance of the solver is likely to be the best this way.
