Reply To: Monitoring and judging solution convergence

Put the update back to 1 - checking convergence every 10 iterations isn't ideal and that option really ought to be hidden in the more modern releases. If you're not converging within around 15 iterations reduce the time step. You want to be moving though time with as few iterations as possible and 15-ish is generally the most efficient number per time step to converge: set maximum to be higher than that.
Note the additional convergence criterion check for a CHANGE not a value so aren't widely used.
