Please share the results of your experiments that prove OpenMP does not
improve performance for Mark’s users.

If you can’t use OpenMP without messing up your code base, you probably
don’t know how to design software. I guess if you refuse to use _Pragma
because C99 is still a fad for you, it is harder, but clearly _Complex is
tolerated.

More seriously, you’ve adopted OpenMP hidden behind MKL so I see no reason
why you can’t wrap OpenMP implementations of the PETSc sparse kernels in a
similar manner.
