Thanks a lot for the quick and helpful reply (since I use finite differences to compute gradients I will try the original Svanberg algorithm)!
Have you considered using a derivative-free algorithm like COBYLA? Or computing the derivatives analytically by an adjoint method? One should almost always avoid finite-difference derivatives.
