 +===== Effect of the parameters on the convergence =====
 +
 +  * Higher are IM and LFIL, lower the number of iterations before convergence is. However the memory cost is more important.
 +  * Higher EPS is, lower the number of iterations before convergence for the iterative solver is. However if the residual is not enough low, the out-of-balanced forces diminish slower and the Newton-Raphson can converge slower.
 +  * Higher DROTOL is, lower the memory cost of the preconditioning matrix is. However the number of iterations before convergence for the iterative solver increases.
