I need to understand the categories into which the time is divided: 1) They do not add to the total (or even close) 2) I am not sure what is going on within each unit 3) This is still much more expensive than my PETSc example (which can be easily run. Its ex2 in KSP). Thus it is hard for me to be convinced that something underneath is just not preventing fast operation. Furthermore, this is not checked against a performance model, say plotted against the number of cells.
