Dear Professor,

I have a question about the bjacobi+ilu, I'm in the place  

src/ksp/ksp/tutorials 

and running the ex2 with

mpirun -np 40 -bind-to core ./ex2 -m 2000 -n 2000  -ksp_max_it 1000000 -ksp_rtol 1e-10 -ksp_type gmres -pc_type bjacobi -sub_pc_type ilu  -sub_pc_factor_levels 10 -ksp_monitor_short

on the Intel machine with 40 cores, the petsc is complied with MKL and ICC/MPIICC with O3.

I found the numerical results are not the same from time to time, although they all right, the iterations are not exactly the same from time to time. Where have I done wrong?

Humm, iterations should rarely change. You can see floating point scale differences. Try jacobi instead of ilu and/or try not using MKL.
 





I'm looking forward to hear you!

Best,
