KSPSolve (53%) + PCSetup (16%) + DMCreateMat (23%) + MatCUSPARSSolAnl (9%) ~ 100 % You didn’t happen to mention how MatCUSPARSSolAnl is accounted for? Am I right in accounting for it as above?

Now, it is all making sense to me. From data file ksp_ex45_N511_gpu_2.txt KSPSolve (53%) + KSPSetup (0%) = PCSetup (16%) + PCApply (37%). However, you said “So an iteration would mostly consist of MatMult + PCApply, with some vector work” 1) You do one solve, but 2 KSPSetUp()s. You must be running on more than one process and using Block-Jacobi .

The setup time is 16%, which is all setup of the individual blocks, and this is all used by the numerical ILU factorization.

I was wrong about the SetUp time being included, as it is outside the event: https://gitlab.com/petsc/petsc/-/blob/main/src/ksp/ksp/interface/itfunc.c#L852 It looks like the remainder of the time (23%) is spent preallocating the matrix. Thanks, Matt The MalMult event is 4 %. How does this event figure into the above equation; if preconditioning (MatMult + PCApply) is included in KSPSolve? Best, Karthik.

For this example, is KSPSetUp time and KSPSolve time mutually exclusive? No, KSPSetUp() will be contained in KSPSolve() if it is called automatically. In your response you said that “PCSetUp() time may be in KSPSetUp() or it maybe in PCApply() it depends on how much of the preconditioner construction can take place early, so depends exactly on the preconditioner used.” I don’t see a explicit call to PCSetUp() or PCApply() in ex45; so for this particular preconditioner (bjacobi) how can I tell how they are timed? They are all inside KSPSolve(). If you have a preconditioned linear solve, the oreconditioning happens during the iteration. So an iteration would mostly consist of MatMult + PCApply, with some vector work. I am hoping to time KSP solving and preconditioning mutually exclusively. I am not sure that concept makes sense here. See above. Thanks, Matt Kind regards, Karthik.

I was just benchmarking the problem with various preconditioner on cpu and gpu. I understand, it is not possible to get mutually exclusive timing. However, can you tell if KSPSolve time includes both PCSetup and PCApply? And if KSPSolve and KSPSetup are mutually exclusive? Likewise for PCSetUp and PCApply. If you do not call KSPSetUp() separately from KSPSolve() then its time is included with KSPSolve(). PCSetUp() time may be in KSPSetUp() or it maybe in PCApply() it depends on how much of the preconditioner construction can take place early, so depends exactly on the preconditioner used. So yes the answer is not totally satisfying. The one thing I would recommend is to not call KSPSetUp() directly and then KSPSolve() will always include the total time of the solve plus all setup time. PCApply will contain all the time to apply the preconditioner but may also include some setup time. Barry Best, Karthik.

I noticed from the output from using the flag -log_summary that for various events their respective %T (percent time in this phase) do not add up to 100 but rather exceeds 100. So, I gather there is some overlap among these events. I am primarily looking at the events KSPSetUp, KSPSolve, PCSetUp and PCSolve. Is it possible to get a mutually exclusive %T or Time for these individual events? I have attached the log_summary output file from my run for your reference. For nested solvers it is tricky to get the times to be mutually exclusive because some parts of the building of the preconditioner is for some preconditioners delayed until the solve has started. It looks like you are using the default preconditioner options which for this example are taking more or less no time since so many iterations are needed. It is best to use -pc_type mg to use geometric multigrid on this problem. Barry Thanks! Karthik. This email and any attachments are intended solely for the use of the named recipients.
