Something is not right here.....

I think you are using SLEPc incorrectly. I suspect that you are not taking
advantage of the MPI process or the solvers in an efficient way.

How does your code scale with other solvers?

My advice: Talk to the SLEPc guys!   :-)

Sorry I can be of no more help; but I will look at your code tomorrow and
report anything if something.

Best,
	Toby
