Hi Matt,
Sorry to distribute you again. I still have trouble with KSPComputeExplicitOperator. I reduced the matrix size to around 1000*1000. The time-cost of this function is acceptable, but when I output the preconditioned matrix, all the values are equal to zero! Here is part of my codes, do I operate error with this function?

PC pc;
KSP ksp;
Mat A,PA;
Vec b,x;
ierr=KSPCreate(PETSC_COMM_WORLD,&ksp);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr=KSPSetOperators(ksp,A,A);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr=KSPGetPC(ksp,&pc);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr=PCSetType(pc,PCHYPRE);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr=KSPSetType(ksp,KSPGMRES);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr=KSPSetFromOptions(ksp);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr=KSPSolve(ksp,b,x);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr=KSPComputeExplicitOperator(ksp,&PA);
ierr=MatAssemblyBegin(PA,MAT_FINAL_ASSEMBLY);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr=MatAssemblyEnd(PA,MAT_FINAL_ASSEMBLY);CHKERRQ(ierr);
ierr=MatView(PA,viewer);CHKERRQ(ierr);

Thank you very much!

Hi all,
I want to analyze the preconditioned matrix. But the KSPComputeExplicitOperator costs too much time to obtain the matrix. My origin matrix is about 3000*3000 sparse one. I noticed this function is applicable for the relative small system. What's the matrix-size limitation for this function? And for my case, any suggestions to solve it with less time?



This is just a really expensive operation. There is no way around it.
