It was faster because it was less general. After being generalised, the performance of SystemAssembler was to all intents and purposes the same as Assembler. > Something strange must have happened. > SystemAssemble enforce symmetric BC elementwise which > is much faster than doing it on linear algebra level. I'm not sure that that is true. In my experience the difference is marginal.
