[Paraview] Paraview freezes

[Mattijs Janssens]

- How much memory does Paraview use at the point of crash? Maybe your 
kernel only supports two Gb per process?
- Maybe the triangle strips or immediate rendering option causes extra 
memory use?
- Can you split the file and run paraview in parallel ?
