You may check your testbench to see if there are any operations that cause an infinite loop.

Questa is able to detect zero delay loops, so I should see an error about this. Furthermore, most of the time the tests run just fine. I have to run a single test a few hundred times to cause this behavior. That means it is nondeterministic behavior. If there is an infinite zero delay loop I should see the hang up in every simulation run.
Besides that, I should be able to break/pause simulation in such a loop, which does not work either.
