[petsc-users] PC FieldSplit - How to Count the Iterations

[Sonia Pozzi]

Dear Barry,

thank you for the answer. That helped a lot. Just a second curiosity. 
I’m setting A00 to be solved with preonly+lu. I obtain the following
ksp_0  KSPGetTotalIterations: 26
ksp_1  KSPGetTotalIterations: 22
Residual ksp_0: 0 Reason ksp_0: 4
Solution ksp_0 :  Convergence in 1 iterations.
Residual ksp_1: 5.23074e-14 Reason ksp_1: 2
Solution ksp_1 :  Convergence in 11 iterations.
Initial system linear residual:  9.904804e-09 

To me is clear that kps_0 iterations number is equal to 22*1+2*2. 
But why is the iterations number for the schur complement multiplied by two?
I’m giving the mass matrix as a preconditioner for the schur complement.
