+As by default
the restart of GMRES is performed every 30 iterations, we have chosen to stop
the GMRES every 30 iterations (\emph{i.e.} $max\_iter_{kryl}=30$). $s$ is set to 8. CGLS is
chosen to minimize the least-squares problem with the following parameters:

+In many situations, using preconditioners is essential in order to find the
+solution of a linear system. There are many preconditioners available in PETSc.
+For parallel applications all the preconditioners based on matrix factorization
+are not available. In our experiments, we have tested different kinds of
+preconditioners, however as it is not the subject of this paper, we will not
+present results with many preconditioners. In practise, we have chosen to use a
+multigrid (mg) and successive over-relaxation (sor). For more details on the
+preconditioner in PETSc please consult~\cite{petsc-web-page}.

Table~\ref{tab:03} shows the execution times and the number of iterations of
example ex15 of PETSc on the Juqueen architecture. Different numbers of cores
-are studied ranging from 2,048 up-to 16,383. Two preconditioners have been
-tested: {\it mg} and {\it sor}. For those experiments, the number of components (or unknowns of the

problems) per core is fixed to 25,000, also called weak scaling. This
number can seem relatively small. In fact, for some applications that need a lot
of memory, the number of components per processor requires sometimes to be

+In Table~\ref{tab:04}, some experiments with example ex54 on the Curie
+architecture are reported. For this application, we fixed $\alpha=0.6$. As it
+can be seen in that Table, the size of the problem has a strong influence on the
+number of iterations to reach the convergence. That is why we have preferred to
+change the threshold. If we set it to $1e-3$ as with the previous application,
+only one iteration is necessray to reach the convergence. So Table~\ref{tab:04}
+shows the results of differents executions with differents number of cores and
+differents thresholds. As with the previous example, we can observe that TSIRM
+is faster than FGMRES. The ratio greatly depends on the number of iterations for
+FMGRES to reach the threshold. The greater the number of iterations to reach the
+convergence is, the better the ratio between our algorithm and FMGRES is. This
+experiment is also a weak scaling with approximately $25,000$ components per
+core. It can also be observed that the difference between CGLS and LSQR is not
+significant. Both can be good but it seems not possible to know in advance which
+one will be the best.
