| -petscpartitioner_parmetis_type <string> | - ParMETIS partitioning type. Either "kway" or "rb" (recursive bisection) | |
| -petscpartitioner_parmetis_imbalance_ratio <value> | - Load imbalance ratio limit | |
| -petscpartitioner_parmetis_debug <int> | - Debugging flag passed to ParMETIS/METIS routines | |
| -petscpartitioner_parmetis_seed <int> | - Random seed |
Notes: when the graph is on a single process, this partitioner actually calls METIS and not ParMETIS
