PCSPAISetSp

specify a symmetric matrix sparsity pattern in the SPAI preconditioner

Synopsis

#include "petscpc.h" 
PetscErrorCode  PCSPAISetSp(PC pc,int sp)

Input Parameters

pc - the preconditioner
n - 0 or 1

Notes: If A has a symmetric nonzero pattern use -sp 1 to improve performance by eliminating some communication in the parallel version. Even if A does not have a symmetric nonzero pattern -sp 1 may well lead to good results, but the code will not follow the published SPAI algorithm exactly.
