While using SPARSE_MEMORY_AGRESSIVE in mkl_sparse_set_memory_hint, the memory utilization is 50% more than without it.

[STK00]

This is sequence Iam using to do SpMV:

mkl_sparse_d_create_csr

mkl_sparse_set_mv_hint

mkl_sparse_optimize

Matrix description type is SPARSE_MATRIX_TYPE_GENERAL with SPARSE_FILL_MODE_FULL and SPARSE_DIAG_NON_UNIT.

Is this expected with SPARSE_MEMORY_AGRESSIVE?
