No, I'm L2-projecting (with mass-lumping) for the restriction.  So if I
weren't lumping, I think this is the dual of the prolongation.  The
lumping seems to be alright (although I'm aware that the preconditioned
operator is then not necessarily symmetric) in the sense that
convergence is good irrespective of mesh resolution/MG levels.

Sure.

Anyway, I think for now problem addressed.  Thanks for the continued advice!

Cheers,

Lawrence
