Thanks you very much Michael. I am working very hard due to a deadline and i
hope your answer will help me to save the day! As now i am just trying to
reach code completition but later i would like the code to perform as best
as possible even if this means writing custom algebra code (with or without
ublas).
 I have to compute the following product:
 J * d * Jt
 where J is a square sparse matrix;
d is a diagonal matrix;
Jt is the transpose of J.
 What's the most efficient way to compute this product. Also later i need to
use the computed matrix
to solve a linear system with SuperLU, this means i have to copy stuff into
three new memory buffers.
Where may i find a good reference about sparse matrix (multiplication)
algorithms?

 Thanks once again to Michael and all the mailing list.
