[vtkusers] vtkPolyDataReader and OutOfMemory errors

In that case, I would recommend that you read your data from csv, directly
into a polydata object and then save that. trying to mimic the vtk file
format is probably time wasted when you could quite easily (as long as your
data is not randomly spread in the file) just create a polydata directly
(unse insert point, insert cell etc etc)..
