This is interesting and has identical issues to those of parallelizing Gauss-Seidel Iterative solver where one preserves natural update order and does not use red-black artifice

Note that for Elliptic solvers natural lexicographic ordering
-
Index in x direction runs fastest, then that in h and then that in z
|
| 3 |
Has similar convergence properties to red-black ordering
|
| 4 |
As red-black has simple parallelization, one always uses this

However according to:
-
Solution of Regular Sparse Triangular Linear Systems on Vector and Distributed-Memory Processors by E. Barszcz, R. Fatoohi, V. Venkatakrishnan, S. Weeratunga, RNR-93-007 (NASA Ames Memo)
-
This looks at LU NAS Benchmark for Cray YMP, CM-2, and iPSC860.

This is NOT true for hyperbolic solvers where lexicographic ordering seems superior to red-black ordering.
