<div class="">We advocate CORE on our userguides, but the Intel compiler crashes reliably with that in certain cases. I think in particular Intel has never figured out how complex numbers work. If the compiler crashes it’s always on the petsc complex mode.
I think I have submitted tickets about that, so maybe it’s fixed in update 3.</div>

<div class="">I have also seen cases where CORE gives numerical problems and replacing by COMMON fixed them. Sorry, that was a user ticket and having solved it I didn’t bother to submit an Intel support ticket.</div>

<div class="">The support website is a nightmare anyway, so I’m not overly motivated to submit support tickets in the first place.</div>
