Hi,

I have written a few linear system solvers for the iPSC/2 in which
I use a lot of BLAS routines. The BLAS-1 routines are all available
in the vector library, but I haven't been able to find BLAS-2 and 3
routines optimised for the sxvx (floating point co-processor & Weitek
vector unit) nodes. Do such routines exist?

Alternatively, are there versions of BLAS routines which would run more
efficiently with Weitek vector processors than the standard Fortran
versions from Netlib? I sent these routines through Vast, but that
still does not seem to make them very fast...

Thanks,

Adriaan
