Thank you very much for your reply. I have been trying to use the implicit
diffusion with AMR, but I am not able to run it. I am getting the following
error and then my solution diverges and blows up.

*perfmon: ran out of space for timer, "PFFT_Init", cannot time this timer
with perfmon*

What I did was that I added the multigrid solver (REQUESTS
Grid/GridSolvers/Multigrid/PfftTopLevelSolve/) to my Config file and added
the corresponding runtime parameters in my *.par file* according to the
FLASH manual. Is there anything else that needs to be added ? Kindly let me
know.

P.S: I am using the split solver which means that the time advancement code
is solved by Thomas Algorithm. Would this have any connection with this
error?

Thank you for your time.
