PARDISO gets stuck in num. factorization for a general complex matrix

[rbunger]

Hi,

PARDISO gets stuck in the numerical factorization step, for a general complex matrix. The matrix is too big to upload it (43 MB 7z archive).

OneAPI versions: 2025.3.0 and 2025.3.1

Thanks,

Rainer

Update: I had to upload the matrix elsewhere. Intel has confirmed a bug and the fix will be in the 2026.0 release. Meanwhile two fixes are proposed:

1) use iparm[23]=1,

2) if there are even number of NUMA nodes, you could use spread-type binding by "OMP_PLACES=cores OMP_PROC_BIND=spread".

Many thanks to the Intel team & kind regards,

Rainer

Option 2) has quite a large impact on the performance, in my case
