Hi!
Without any intent of being rude (this is a serious consideration):
when you're handling such large matrices,
isn't it time to ask yourself the question: "Are all the data that I
want to store still meaningful?"
Nobody is able to grasp the significance of 10000*10000 numbers up to
the last double precision digit
behind the comma. Maybe this is the time to cut out the relevant part
of your matrix and just save that?
Is your matrix sparse? Is the condition number very large? In these
cases (and probably many others)
you can significantly reduce the size of the data to store!
Regards,
Arjan
