Hi all,

I try to play with gmsh, and I start with this simple example:
Point(1) = {16.0,0.0,0.0,1.0};
Point(2) = {-16.0,0.0,0.0,1.0};
Point(3) = {0.0,4.0,0.0,1.0};
Point(4) = {0.0,-4.0,0.0,1.0};
Point(5) = {0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0};
Ellipse(1) = {2,5,1,3};
Ellipse(2) = {1,5,2,3};
Ellipse(3) = {1,5,2,4};
Ellipse(4) = {2,5,1,4};
Line Loop(5) = {2,-1,4,-3};
Plane Surface(6) = {5};
Extrude Surface {6, {0.0,0.0,0.008}};
Surface Loop(29) = {28,15,-6,19,23,27};
Volume(30) = {29};

But unfortunately, after a long time and consumming all the memory,
gmsh crashe, filling at the same time his console with a lot of:
unable to add point xxx (will try it later)

I think it's because my size are tricky (the ellipse is really thin),
but I'm sorry, this is what I'm studying :-(

Hope someone can help.

Have a nice day and thanks for this software.
