No. You obviously don't know what a gradient is...it is the slope, or 
"rate of change" of the function. The gradient of your function 
increases in the x and y directions, so bigger bounding boxes require 
higher max_gradient values. If you don't increase that value, the solver 
fails to find a surface.
