Unhandled exception in thread started by <function liveUpdate at 0x7f0388a37320>

Hi,

I'm trying to simulation triaxial test by using https://github.com/yade/trunk/blob/master/examples/triax-tutorial/script-session1.py wiht some minor modifications. It works well with young = 100e6, but it encountered some problems when I set young = 500e6. Most of this simulation works normally, but then there will be the following prompts in the terminal and the simulation stopped.

Has anybody met the same problem? How can I solve it ?
