Preliminary Numerical Results

Representative timings for a basic CG solve on several computers are given below. The model problem solved is Laplace's equation on the unit square, discretized with five-point central differences, with uniform mesh size and Dirichlet boundary data. The unpreconditioned conjugate gradient method is iterated to a convergence criterion of . Single precision real arithmetic is employed. It should be noted that these figures are preliminary and do not reflect all code optimizations which are currently underway for the package.
