[Paraview] CellDataToPointData much slower in 5.0?

Wow, this is indeed very slow.
Looking at the Timer Log it seems to me like what is slow is the rendering.
Indeed: add an Outline filter after the CellDataToPointData and hide the
CellDataToPointData source. It's fast as it should. You can also try with a
ProgrammableFilter, same result.

It looks like what is slow is coloring by a PointData array (choose a
celldata array and is fast)...

@Ken: any idea why this happens? is it something that has been fixed
recently?
