Hi Dave,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Yes it is parallel so the preallocation calls are not lowered by the allocation.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am trying to use MatXAIJSetPreallocation, but not sure how, since the following link does not give an example:</div>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>If I have the following matrix:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>0 1 2 0 </div>
<div>1 0 0 0 </div>
<div>2 0 1 3</div>
<div>0 0 3 2 </div>

<div>How should I put in the parameters of MatXAIJSetPreallocation?</div></div></blockquote><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Please read this page to understand the info required</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><div><a href="https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/Mat/MatMPIAIJSetPreallocation.html">https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/Mat/MatMPIAIJSetPreallocation.html</a></div><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Compute everything as described above and give the results to MatXAIJSetPreallocation().

<div>Thank you very much for your reply. That is indeed the problem. I have been working with matrices in Slepc but I don’t really understand it. I tried to preallocate but it still does not work.<span> </span></div>

<div dir="auto">This looks fine. However MatSeqAIJSetPreallocation() has no effect if the Mat type is not SEQAIJ.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Are you running in parallel? If yes then the Mat type will be MATMPIAIJ and you either have to call the MPI specific preallocator or use the generic one I pointed you too.</div>
