You're right. Would you consider integrating and contributing your sparse 
solver?

Joe,

It could be 50K x 50K, however, with only less than 1% non-zero elements.
For example, for a 2500x2500 sparse matrix, the following are my test
results:

- Common math LU decomposition 54 sec
- My own sparse matrix routine (Pure Java) 0.2 sec

Clearly, common math lib solves the matrix as a full matrix.

Thx, Mike
