You should increase Nb_Fill much more, try with 500, 1000...
I am using a Getdp version compiled with Petsc and a direct solver
(umfpack), with the number of unknowns you have that could be also feasible.

My goal is to put 3 systems next to each other to see the neighour influence from one to another electromagnet. This blows the mesh to > 200.000 tetrahedra, and convergence is missing when solving.
