It is not only the button that doesn't respond, the entire application
won't respond if you are blocking tcl from processing anything. This
call to p.solve blocks, and, in turn the interpreter can't process
events and the GUI remains frozen till p.solve returns.
Ideally you should break this p.solve in steps, so you can schedule
next steps and the GUI will remain responsible, but if you can't break
it, and if it doesn't make sense to run it in another process then you
use a thread to solve this.
