We should work towards this. A symmetric assembler should be the 'flagship' since it permits CG and Cholesky for a wide range of problems. I have some ideas on how to do what SymmetricAssembler does but without assembling a whole second sparse matrix. > Is there an overhead for putting the OpenMP code into the regular > assembler?
