Multiplication of a matrix with an input vector

Aspects of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for performing a multiplication of a matrix with an input vector. The method includes one or more processors subdividing a matrix into logical segments, the matrix being given in a sparse-matrix data format. The method further includes one or more processors obtaining one or more test vectors. The method further includes one or more processors performing an optimization cycle. In an additional aspect, performing the optimization cycle further comprises, for each of the test vectors, one or more processors, performing a cache performance test.
