[Paraview] reducing load time?

[Berk Geveci]

ASCII XML is very slow to load because it uses the XML parser. For
large data, you should switch to a binary format.

XML binary
legacy VTK
Exodus
Xdmf

are a few choices.

To see the difference in load time, save the data out as a binary vtu
or vtk file and load it back in.
