# KSPGROPPCG#

A pipelined conjugate gradient method developed by Bill Gropp. Pipelined Krylov Methods

## Notes#

This 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.

MPI configuration may be necessary for reductions to make asynchronous progress, which is important for performance of pipelined methods. See What steps are necessary to make the pipelined solvers execute efficiently?
