For my test cases with a matrix A of the size 30k x 30k solving for the smallest soutions works quite well, but when i increase the dimension of my system to around A = 768000 x 768000 or 3 million x 3 million and ask for the smallest real 3000 (the number is increasing with increasing system size) eigenvalues and eigenvectors i get the output (for the 768000): <br> The product 4001 times 768000 overflows the size of PetscInt; consider reducing the number of columns, or use BVVECS instead<br>i understand that the requested number of eigenvectors and eigenvalues is causing an overflow but i do not understand the solution of the problem which is stated in the error message. Can someone tell me what exactly BVVECS is and how i can use it? Or is there any other solution to my problem ?</div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>You can also reconfigure with 64-bit integers: --with-64-bit-indices</div><div><br></div><div> Thanks,</div><div><br></div><div> Matt</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div>Thank you very much in advance,</div><div>Jan </div><div><br></div></div></div>
