    You can get some inspiration here. It is an SLP optimizer, wrapped around a convergence filter combined with an adaptive move limit scheme. You could in theory replace the linear optimizer with your mma version, and utilize the rest of the framework (convergence filter + adaptive move limits) I also handle constraints in a similar fashion as mma, so you should be able to see some similarities 😉

    So I usually fallback to NLopt.jl, it is an interface around the old NLopt library (written in C/FORTRAN/C++). It is not super hard to use but it is more bare bones than the alternatives you mentioned, however it has dozens of optimization methods and options, great documentation and it is super fast. I am sure it would work great with your problem if you are willing to spend the time to tweak its configuration option.
