# KSPGROPPCG

A pipelined conjugate gradient method from Bill Gropp There method has two reductions, one of which is overlapped with the matrix-vector product and one of which is overlapped with the preconditioner.

See also KSPPIPECG, which has only a single reduction that overlaps both the matrix-vector product and the preconditioner.

### Level

beginner

### Notes

MPI configuration may be necessary for reductions to make asynchronous progress, which is important for performance of pipelined methods. See the FAQ on the PETSc website for details.
