<br>
I am using PETSc sparse matrix ('aij') for a FEM program, when the <br>
matrix is really big, let's say 1million by 1million, we use setValues <br>
based on the index vector I and J, but the whole process takes around 2 <br>
hours.<br>
<br>
I don't know why it is like that, or is there any option that I should <br>
set to make this faster?<br>
<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
