abstract
Adaptive multi-grid methods have proven very successful in dealing with critical slow down for the Wilson-Dirac solver in lattice gauge theory. Multi-grid algorithms developed for Staggered fermions using the K\"ahler-Dirac preconditioning~\cite{Brower:2018ymy} have shown remarkable success. In this work, we discuss the performance of this staggered multi-grid algorithm in four dimensions. We also demonstrate that offloading some components of a multi-shift solve to a multi-grid solver leads to a significant performance improvement in an existing MILC spectrum workflow on the Summit and Selene supercomputers.

Improving HISQ propagator solves using deflation
Deflated CG with 2048 eigenvectors solves HISQ propagators about 10x faster than standard CG on a 144^3 x 288 lattice at the physical light quark mass, excluding eigenvector setup cost.
