I use the option ?-mat_pastix_verbose 1 to print the Pastix
factorization information. You are right. The sparser one actually has
more Number of nonzeros (with fill-in) and Number of operations (LU),
thus takes longer to factorize. Thanks.

Hello everyone,
I am solving Ax=b with sparse direct solver Pastix. I have two
equivalent A's (upto these zero entries): A1 and A2. A1 is generated
with ignor_zero_entries and A2 is without this option. For example A1
has 9 millions nonzeros, while A2 has 10 millions zeros. When I solve
them with

No, a different ordering will be computed, and the ordering with the
sparser matrix could even lead to more fill.
