 Replying to [comment:1 lrssvt]:

 > How do I determine the correct tolerance?

 So to answer this again (I didn't really answer before).
 I suggest you use the value that you do tollerate in your topology.
 Millimeter precision is enough and your units are meters ? Use 1e-3 !

 There is support for specifying a topology-wide tolerance (it's an
 argument to CreateTopology)
 but no funtion currently really uses it at the moment. You can surely use
 it as a reference.
