[petsc-users] Convergence/accuracy degradation with increasing number of procs

I have tested default GMRES+ILU(0) solver for problem of size ~200000
and I observed that both convergence rate and accuracy degrade when I
increase number of processes.
E.g., number of iterations almost doubles when going from 1 to 4
processors.
I noticed that ILU(0) is somehow represented by sequential matrices
internally and feel that this might be a reason?
