Regular gcc benchmark runs for sparse-matrix vector multiplication?

It is probably helpful to ask this question on the GNU Fortran mailing 
list (copied here), as more Fortran developers are listening there ...

Two questions off-hand:

1. Do you have a small test case that shows the problem ?

2. Is this single- or multi-threaded code ?
