Computation takes too long for solving even with coarse and normal mesh

I have a simple geometry and I want to find the inductance and the resistance of the same. However, I do not understand why the computation takes so long for this. I wasnt able to compute fully due to processing ability of my PC. However, according to me, it should not take long.

Can someone help me in explaining where I am going wrong ?

as far as I can see the moel does not contain a single turn coil or any other closed loop
structure but rather a plate.

Thank you for the reply. However, it is not exactly a plate, but the distance between the two plates is very small (in um) as compared to the length and breadth. If you zoom and see, i think you can see it.
Thank you.

I downloaded your model and just ran it. It took 2 mins and 3 secs. I have a three year old laptop with 8 GB RAM. If you have less than that, 3D models do not run smoothly.

I am running this on my university server, which I think has a 128 GB RAM. I am not sure as to why it takes so much time though,
Can you please send the file, with the mesh and the results . I will check it now.

Dear Sven,
I am running the file, you sent me. It is still creating the multigrid levels. I am not sure how much time it will take though.

check your comsol core settings if u changed......

I havent changed the settings. I am now looking into what could have gone wrong. It has taken me 40 mins now and the computation is still not over.
Thanks a lot for your help. :)
