[Paraview] Crash on vtr file load

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Matthias,

I'm tempted to believe the clip problem is a memory issue given that
it's a 32 bit XP and the data is "relative large", as you said.

Could you try compiling ParaView from the git? If not, ParaView 3.14 should be released this month and should work.

With the 29 MB file and one clip filter, I see 424 MB of memory usage in the task manager. When I move the clip plane, the memory usage grows to some 0.8 GB, and Paraview crashes.
