Speed up mul! for Jacobi matrices (X, Y)

[MikaelSlevinsky]

The following code compares the mul! speed of banded-block-banded matrices to the diagonal. For ChebyshevT, the diagonal mul! is mathematically only 3x for X and 9x for Y given the tridagonal-block-tridiagonal structure, but there appears to be a large overhead to it all. Moreover, mul! with views may spend a lot of time with the garbage collector and can be slower even though they require less data. I also don't see why mul! with X is not 3x faster than that with Y. Finally, mul! with an adjoint view is basically unusable (O(n^4) complexity?).

[TSGut]

I assume you meant to write

julia> Jxt = jacobimatrix(Val(1), T²);

julia> Jyt = jacobimatrix(Val(2), T²);

?

[MikaelSlevinsky]

Yes, you're right. Timings and script updated

[MikaelSlevinsky]

The timings seem insensitive to the types of the vectors (blockedvectors or vanilla vectors).

[MikaelSlevinsky]

With special routines (jacobi_mul! and jacobi_t_mul! added above), breaking down the multiplication into blocks, the mul! with an adjoint view can be made as fast as the current mul!, but still far off from a multiple (3x or 9x) times the mul! with a Diagonal.

[dlfivefifty]

Aren't they implemented as KronTrav? This issue should really be in LazyBandedMatrices.jl, the slow code should be reproducible there

[dlfivefifty]

Note ::KronTrav * ::DiagTrav can be reduced to matrix-matrix which will probably be the fastest. Is this what you actually want? That is, do you want to store your coefficients as matrices and not block-vectors?

[dlfivefifty]

Here's an example, but I just realised its not smart enough to reduce to banded matrix banded..... so I think the first step should be to speed up the following.

Note for finite-dimensional we'll have to zero out the bottom right of the matrix since DiagTrav ignores this...

julia> f = (x,y) -> exp(x*cos(y));

julia> @time c = transform(T², splat(f)) # actually stores a matrix

I probably won't be able to look at this for a while. But I want you to look into your heart and ask yourself, do you actually want the code to be fast? If so, why is it that you live your life in such a rush?

Slow code is a valuable opportunity to take time for self-reflection, and I would hate to rob you of this valuable opportunity.
