I thought that inverting a symmetric matrix would be faster, since there are optimised algorithms and I also saw that there is a method explicity for Symmetric, but maybe I am overlooking some trivial things, so please help :wink: This is the method I found with methods(inv) [9] inv(A::LinearAlgeb…
