The GRG algorithm terminates when it detects no feasible direction for improvement, meaning that it has reached a local minimum on the objective function. It may not necessarily reach the global optimal solution or the steepest gradient, and the maximum number of iterations is typically set beforehand as a stopping criterion but not necessarily limited to 100 iterations.
