<H3><FONT COLOR="#CC3333">Notes</FONT></H3>
Since the PETSc libraries incorporate timing of phases and operations,
<A HREF="../Profiling/PetscGetTime.html#PetscGetTime">PetscGetTime</A>() is intended only for timing of application codes.
The options database commands -log, -log_summary, and -log_all activate
PETSc library timing.  See the users manual for further details.
