Dear PETSc team, I am interested in pipelined CG (-ksp_type pipecg) and Gropp's CG (-ksp_type groppcg), it is expected that this iterative method with pipelined has advantages over traditional CG in the case of multiple processes. So I'd like to ask for Poisson problem, how many computing nodes do I need to show the advantages of pipelined CG or Gropp's CG over CG (No preconditioner is used)?
Currently, I can only use up to 32 nodes (36 cores per nodes) at most on my cluster, but both "pipecg" and "groppcg" seem to be no advantage over "cg" when I solve Poisson equations with homogeneous Dirichlet BC in [0, 1]^2 (remain 20K~60K DOFs per process). I guess the reason would be too few computing nodes. Because I am calling PETSc via other numerical software, if need, I would mail related performance information to you by using command line options suggested by PETSc. Thank you. Thanks, Gang
