Sorry, one more comment from the UserGuide, but I think you should consider very seriously first three comments sent before:
- buggy libraries. Machine-optimized mathematical libraries are very fast but sometimes not so robust from a numerical point of view. Suspicious behavior: you get an error that is not reproducible on other architectures or that disappears if the calculation is repeated with even minimal changes in parameters. One known case: HP-Compaq alphas with cxml libraries. Try to use compiled BLAS and LAPACK (or better, ATLAS) instead of machine-optimized libraries.
