[CIG-LONG] Diffusivity problem in Gale

Hi Nicolas,

Did you try to set default diffusivity to some different value? e.g. the 
value you actually need?
by adding e.g.  <param name="defaultDiffusivity">1e4</param>  (that 
works with my scaling I don't remember what was your number)

I guess that if you put nothing defaultDiffusivity is 1.
