oh, it is so unfortunate that the first step of my project requires the inversion of a very large matrix. will have to revert back to scalapack or MR based solutions I guess. thanks, canal

The problem is a) it densifies sparse matrices b) it is much more costly than solving a linear system Samsara is roughly memory based, but different back-ends will try to spill to disk if necessary. It is likely that the resulting degradation in performance would be dramatic and thus unacceptable to most users.
