ex2p: Linear elasticity using higher order polynomial

[karthichockalingam]

Hello,

I am a new user to mfem. I am trying to solve the example 2 (parallel version) with higher order polynomials.

(1) How can I print the condition number of the stiffness/global matrix?

(2) Should I set both amg_elast and static_cond equal to true?

(3) I believe for higher order polynomials the sparsity pattern is dense compared to h refinement. How can I account for the dense sparsity pattern while I use hypre solver (as in ex2p)? Or is it already accounted for?

Thanks,
Karthi
