There are plenty of Ipopt options one could play with: https://coin-or.github.io/Ipopt/OPTIONS.html
You may want to avoid the ones marked as "advanced". mu_strategy, nlp_scaling_method, and other options related to step computation and line search could be interesting.

Maybe it is the nonconvexity of the problem (lg(rg) not '-') that prevents Ipopt from doing fast progress. A better starting point might help.

Updating to a current Ipopt version or changing the linear solver will probably not help, but who knows.
