Dear PETSc Users,

I want to compute approximate matrix product A^-1*B where A^-1 is approximated 
by ILU(0) of A matrix for sequential and parallel executions. For sequential 
code I can use KSP in preonly mode (PCILU works only for sequential code), get 
the ILU(0) by PCFactorGetMatrix and then call MatMatSolve. However the 
resulting matrix has to be in dense format because that's the way MatMatSolve 
works. In my case A^-1*B product is sparse for sure, because ILU(0) has the 
same sparsity pattern. Suppose that I 
will have a factored A matrix for parallel code as well. What is the best way 
to get the A^-1*B product without creating dense matrices? Is it even possible? 

Best Regards,
Damian Goik
