Hi all,
Under some circumstances simulations can slow down up to the point where the
nest.Simulate() does not advance anymore and stays stuck at a given virtual time, with a
"realtime factor" of 0. I suppose this can happen for instance when a network
falls into a regime of runaway excitation in which a massive number of spikes are being
exchanged.
I'm looking for a way to stop the simulation in such a case, (say when the realtime
factor goes below a set threshold, or when the output files are not updated for a certain
duration), ideally in such a way that the program can continue running rather than
crashing. If anyone has a suggestion about how to go around this issue I'd be happy to
hear it.
Thanks in advance! Best, Tom
