infinite loop in ipu #13

Looks like we're encountering that infinite loop described in the paper. @jiffyclub you ought to be able to recreate it by running this notebook:

I rebased on master to get the performance improvements in IPU and bumped the max-iterations in household_weights and now it can synthesize all of Sonoma County in a couple minutes.

The last geography draws zero households, I didn't investigate why.

Just noting the commit where I updated the max iterations parameter: 9987d29.
