How many points? (sources/targets) #4

Closed labarba closed 3 years ago

In the performance section of results, Fig. 13 (timing vs. N, showing linear complexity) says "number of elements" in the x-axis label. The data point at largest N shows 2x10^6.

In the text, it says "in the largest case, with over 10 million quadrature points." It's implicit, then, that the figure plots w.r.t. the number of elements, as it says. It would be good to be explicit in the caption by mentioning the number of quadrature points per triangle, and stating the largest N is so-many points.

Elsewhere, too: captions of Table 4, Figs. 14, 15. Also, section 3.5: the Zika virus is discretized with 10 million elements. Is this 6 quadrature points per triangle, leading to 60 million FMM points? Say that.

Ha! Found that it says for the Zika virus 3 quad points per triangle are used. So it's 30 million points?

Yes. I have added this information to our result. In addition, we now report the number of quadrature points instead of the quadrature order.
