Burlen,

 

I appreciate the analysis.  Thank you for your time and the quick response.

 

I'll figure out how to post a bug report.

 

Phil

Phil,

The same thing happens to me on my 32 bit windows system. It looks like the
glyph 3d class is being very liberal with memory allocation when
initializing arrays. It's using the number of points in the input dataset
rather than the number of points that will actually be glyphed then after
glyphing takes place the sizes are corrected. I'm going to hazard a guess
that it could be a whole lot smarter in this regard and simply size the
arrays based on the number of points that it will actually glyph. The best
thing to do is file a bug report so that it's fixed in the coming release.
I'll cc the list in case to see if anyone can give you a better answer.

Burlen,

 

Hadn't used dropbox before.  Looks like a good solution.  This may be the
second message with the dropbox link,

could you use drop box or something like that?

Burlen,

 

Yes, would be happy to share the dataset.  It is ~34MB.  Do you have an ftp
site where I can upload the dataset?

 

I can use over 5000 vectors with the 3.10 version.  I get the memory problem
with 200 vectors with the 3.14 version.

Phil, I would have expected 1000 to be ok... Could you share the dataset?

Hi Burlen,

 

Yes, I think you are right, that I am running out of memory.  I've attached
a screen shot of the information tab, which has the same values for both the
3.10 version and the 3.14 version.

 

I was surprised that the 3.10 version handles this data set with no reported
problems and 3.14 aborts with the memory problem.  

 

I reduced the number of glyphs from the default 5000 to 1000 when running
the 3.14 version, but the problem persists.

 

Thanks,

Phil

Hi Phil,

you're running out of memory, try reducing the number of glyphs. you might
also check the information tab to verify the contents of the file are as
expected.

I've been using version 3.10 and have just started working with version 3.14

 

During that transition I've encountered a problem with a data set.  The data
is in the VTK legacy format and is ~34mb in size.  I'll be happy to provide
a copy of this data set if that would help.

 

The simple process I use with this dataset is to read it and then use the
glyph filter with arrows.  No problem with version 3.10. I encounter a
problem with version 3.14 with that process.  I compiled ParaView 3.14 to
get some debug information.  I'm working with Visual Studio 2008 on MS
Windows 7 - 64 bit, but doing 32-bit compiles for both 3.10 and 3.14

 

Attached are two screen shots of the results I get with my compiled version
of 3.14 running in the Visual Studio debugger.

 

I would appreciate any thoughts.

 

Phil
