[ublas] Solver recommendation

Hi,

After monitoring this mailing list for quite some time, I finally have
a question to post. I've noticed that that there is a huge amount of
knowledge about matrix libraries on this mailing list, so with all due
apologies that the question might be a little off topic, that there
are no general answers for specific problems and so on and so forth,
here I go:

Which library/solver (that has uBLAS bindings, preferrably) would you
recommend for solving a very sparse, real system Ax = b with size on
the order of 10^5? My initial guess from monitoring the list would be
umfpack. Would that be a good candidate?

Best Regards,
Jonas Hagmar
