+In  this paper  we propose  a  two stage  iterative method  which increases  the
+convergence of Krylov iterative methods,  typically those of GMRES variants. The
+principle of  our approach  is to  build an external  iteration over  the Krylov
+method  and to  save  the current  residual  frequently (for  example, for  each
+restart of GMRES). Then after a given number of outer iterations, a minimization
+step is applied on the matrix composed of the save residuals in order to compute
+a  better solution and  make a  new iteration  if necessary.  We prove  that our
+method  has the  same  convergence property  than  the inner  method used.  Some
+experiments using up  to 16,394 cores show that compared  to GMRES our algorithm
+can be around 7 times faster.
