Though the flop rate of MatScale is not so high (467) it is taking very little (0 percent of the run time while MatMult takes 23 percent of the time). So the main cost related to the matrices is MatMult because it has a lot of operations 9553, you might think about your algorithms you are using and if there improvements. It looks like you are using some kind of multigrid and solve 6 problems with 1357 total iterations which is 200 iterations per solve. This is absolutely HUGE for multigrain, you need to tune the multigrid for you problem to bring that down to at most a couple dozen iterations per solve.
