Your ksp_rtol might be hurting your convergence a bit near the root... Have you tried -snes_ksp_ew? There are several EW-specific options within you can play with as well: http://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/docs/manualpages/SNES/SNESSetFromOptions.html -- John ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.
