A time-domain simulation is a really inefficient way to do  
electrostatics calculations; you are usually much better off solving  
Poisson's equation (or whatever) directly.

Realize that no field in FDTD is truly static in any case, because you  
start at time=0 with zero fields and then you have to turn them on  
somehow.  In Meep, probably the best you can do is to use a source  
with a very low frequency and a gradual turn-on (specified by the  
"width" parameter of the continuous-src).
