Hello All,

I have a question about preallocation of DMDA matrix. As I understand, it preallocates the number of nonzeros using the stencil width info. However, it seems it will not be efficient for me: I have a large dof (around 2000), where only some of those dof's are coupled, so those dof*dof blocks inside the DMMatrix would be also sparse. I also use this DMDA matrix as preconditioner, which has lower coupling than original DMDA array, so stencil is effectively smaller (I precondition higher order finite volume method with lower order FV method). Can I manually specify how many zeros needs to be preallocated for the DMDA matrix?

p.s. I do not want o use normal matrix, as I relay on dmda indexing (MatSetValuesStencil).

Thank you and best regards,

Oleksandr.
