The information at https://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_macOS <https://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_macOS> is that the default octave uses the accelerator variant.
But this has the problem that is uses arpack, whose default variant is accelerate; this uses Apples Vector Libraries which have some known bugs that can cause Octave to crash if certain functions in arpack are called! So they recomend using the atlas port of octace (hence of arpack and SparseSuite, too, I presume). > On 16 Apr2018, at 3:55 PM, Adam Dershowitz <de...@alum.mit.edu> wrote: > > As an datapoint, but not completely answering your question.
