Thanks

I meshed this shape with different settings for resolution. The values are shown
under each example.

isoSmooth was set to no. The failures seem to happen regardless but this gives
an indication that in the first example, with resolution = 5, the failure is due
to the curvature being too tight.

However some of the higher settings of resolution gave what looks like meshing
failure.

Also flat is about 2.5 times faster.

(The meshing time is approximately proportional to the fourth power of the
resolution.)
