Hi Asmorom, do your results also differ if you run your problem again on the same number of processes, or do you get the same result? If they still differ, there is a nice explanation on why this happens in the FAQ on PETSc: https://petsc.org/release/faq/#how-come-when-i-run-the-same-program-on-the-same-number-of-processes-i-get-a-different-answer
You could also try to use Trilinos instead and see if you're more satisfied with the results. If you think there is a bug in your code, you can try to reduce the size of your code to get a smaller, non-working example. It might be easier to find it on a smaller scale.
