[image] Cholesky decomposition of low-rank positive-semidefinite matrix You maybe want the “pivoted Cholesky” factorization , via cholesky(A, Val(true)), probably passing check=false. (Under the hood, this calls LAPACK’s dpstrf .) Is there such equivalent for sparse matrix? I don’t see the pi…

I did benchmark. They were order of magnitude slower.
