Chareyre proposed the following answer:
>From my experience, given the parameters listed above, your simulation could take not more than 1 minute.
I agree with Chiara's advices (with the exception that density does not help*).

The main parameters to play with are: strain rate and stiffness.

(*) if you increase density, you should also decrease strain rate, so it
has a null effect on total time. To put it differently, changing rate
and density is redundant, so better change rate as it is not a material
parameter.

>And I activated setCohesionNow each 1 iteration.

Why?!
