Please send a code that reproduces the problem. I cannot reproduce it. It is absolutely expected to work, but there may be an untested corner case you have hit on.
The comment /* This allows reusing the Superlu_DIST communicator and grid when only a single SuperLU_DIST matrix is used at a time */ means that __IF__ only a single SuperLU_DIST matrix is used at a time then the Superlu_DIST communicator and grid ARE reused for a next one created after the first has been destroyed. If multiple SuperLU_DIST matrix are needed at the same time then they each get there own Superlu_DIST communicator and grid and there is no reuse. But this does not mean you cannot have as many matrices and solvers outstanding at the same time as you want. Barry Yes there could be a subtle bug in our logic but we need a test case to find it. > On Apr 21, 2021, at 8:06 AM, Deij-van Rijswijk, Menno <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Good afternoon, > > In our code we're using two matrices that are preconditioned using > SUPERLU_dist.
