Using Petsc Release Version 3.1.0, Patch 4, Fri Jul 30 14:42:02 CDT 2010

  Goodness gracious, you won't run performance tests on your grandpa's desk calculator would you? Switch to petsc-dev immediately http://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/developers/index.html and use src/ksp/ksp/examples/tutorials/ex45.c and use the options -ksp_monitor -mg_levels_ksp_type richardson -mg_levels_pc_type sor -log_summary -da_refine 6
