<div dir="ltr">Huh. That's odd then. I was actually bisecting the petsc releases to narrow it down...I knew 3.3 was ok and 3.7 was not. So I tried 3.5 which was ok, and then 3.6 which was ok as well, leading to me to conclude the difference was between 3.6 and 3.7. </div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Aug 11, 2017 at 12:03 PM, Barry Smith <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:bsmith@mcs.anl.gov" target="_blank">bsmith@mcs.anl.gov</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><br>
Thanks for confirming this. The change was actually in the 3.4 release. I have updated the 3.4 changes file to include this change in both the maint and master branches.<br>

However, when I updated it up to 3.7.6 I ended up running into issues with one of the KSP solves. The remainder of the code is identical,<br>

The KSPView for each of the two are given below which are identical, up to small formatting changes. There is still more I can track down, but I thought I would ask if someone knows what might have changed between these two versions which could save me a lot of time.<br>
