[petsc-users] When is it better to use MUMPS?

[w_ang_temp]

Hello,
    As is know, MUMPS is based on a direct method. When the system is big, the 
parallel direct solver is
not effective compared with the iterative solver. So when is it better to use 
MUMPS?
    Thanks.
                                         Jim
