Drape with Kangaroo tearing the mesh

Hi all,

I am trying to use a draping definition using kangaroo. I want the mesh to drape quite snug over a collection of objects but am running into some issues.

1) The mesh seems to tear in some areas, even though there doesn't seem to be a huge collision in that area. Which parameter(s) should I change to avoid this?

2) It is sooo slow. The mesh count needed to produce the definition I'd like is just too high. Any tips to increase speed?

I have attached the definition and an image of the tearing.

Thanks in advance!

Dan
