You can do this directly in PETSc. Create a KSP object with PREONLY and PCCHOLESKY (or just a PC object). Then call KSPSetUp (or PCSetUp) and extract the factored matrix with PCFactorGetMatrix(). Then call MatGetInertia() on the factored matrix. Repeat this for each value of E.
I guess it can be even shorter if you call MatCholeskyFactor() directly.
