Hi Fande,

I don't know, I am working and validating with a DEBUG version of PETSc, and this "mwe" is a 30x30 matrix...

But I "hope" the parallel version is faster for large problems... if it is not maybe it should be somewhat reviewed...

Hi Eric,

I am curious if the parallel symbolic factoriation is faster than the sequential version? Do you have timing?


Fande,

            ? One would think that doing a "sequential" symbolic
        factorization won't affect the answer to this huge amount?
        Perhaps this is the problem that needs to be addressed.


    I do agree that this is a huge amount of difference... and if we
    agree this is also a bug, than it means there are not one but two
    bugs that deserve to be fixed...

    Thanks,
