Would you recommend to try MUMPS as well? (I.e., will MUMPS have a change to be faster than ILU?)<br>

<br>
It seems as if I can't use MUMPS since the cluster I am working on doesn't meet some system requirements. (PETSc otherwise works fine on the cluster.) However, I understand that PETSc also interfaces a large number of other sparse direct solvers. Are there any recommendations about which one might be a good choice if MUMPS cannot be used?</blockquote>
