Thanks,

Hi,
I find my problem with the memory. Using PetscTrDump(PETSC_NULL) I've
cornered it and I've find the lines which generate it.
I've discovered that the functions like MatTranspose(), MatMatMult() or
similar functions creates extra memory in my code and these don't destroy.
I explain:
I create my matrices ----->>>> 3000 b are created (for example)
I use MatMatMult --------->>>> 2000 bytes are created (for example)
I destroy my matrices ---->>>> 3000 b are destroyed.
How can I free the memory created in the function MaMatMult()?
The final result is that if I use this function in a iterative process I
full the memory of the box. If I multiply the matrix in a own function,
I don't have this problem.
best regards,
jordi
