YES ! That's it. ILUTP preconditioner and ILU=32. Just 45 Iterations in few seconds, great !
I just wonder why that small change in geometry caused such big difference.

Yes, and since version 4.1.0 it has got quite stable. It is really very flexible. I hate that drag'n
drop'n click
editing but otherwise it is really cool.
