Re: GMRES: Convergence

I would guess that you specified a relative tolerance of 10^-8, which
is satisfied below.

I have specified maximum number of iterations 500 and tolerance 1E-8. Usually it
drives the residual to specified tolerance but in this case GMRES seems to stop
after 15 iterations and the residual is still above tolerance.

Anyone knows why this happens?
