Aldo, Actually it is far easier than I thought. I have added the argument -vecscatter_reproduce that will cause the receives to always be processed in the same order (though order or operations in the MPI reductions may still result in slightly different convergence histories.) to

Aldo, I would scale the turbulence equation to match the scaling of the rest of the equations. I suspect you are ramping up the CFL number too quickly. For a "continuation" type Newton method to work well (in my mindset anyways), you need to have the solution well converged b

Aldo, 1)Have you made runs where you require, say -ksp_rtol 1.e-12 to eliminate the effects of not solving the linear systems accurately? 2) Have you run the exact example that you ran with geometric decomposition also with the parmetis decomposition? Is that what you sent? (This is t
