Thank you. Can I ask another question?
In my log summary output, it shows that although there are two SNES iteration and total 9 linear iterations. The functions MatLUFactorSym and MatLUFactorNum are only called for three times. MatLUFactorSym 3 1.0 1.4073e+00 1.0 0.00e+00 0.0 0.0e+00 0.0e+00 1.5e+01 1 0 0 0 2 1 0 0 0 2 0 MatLUFactorNum 3 1.0 3.2754e+01 1.0 9.16e+09 1.0 0.0e+00 0.0e+00 0.0e+00 31 97 0 0 0 32 97 0 0 0 280 I checked the -info output. It shows that One MatLUFactorSymbolic_SeqAIJ() is called in down smoother of the first SNES, one MatLUFactorSymbolic_SeqAIJ() is called in the coarse solve of the first SNES, and one MatLUFactorSymbolic_SeqAIJ() is called in the down smoother of the second SNES. Do you have any ideas why there are 9 multigrid iterations, but only 3 MatLUFactorSymbolic calls in the program?
