[vtkusers] Issues with large polydata datasets & capturingvtkOutputWindow data

[Henrik Westerberg]

Have you tried enabling the /3GB flag? We have had problems here in our lab with windows, 
even when it gets close to the 2GB limit.

Subject: [vtkusers] Issues with large polydata datasets & capturingvtkOutputWindow data



XP, 2.8 Ghz P4 512MB RAM, fixed page file size of 4GB, enthought tools
suite 1.0.0 (python 2.4 vtk 5.0)

Dear Users,

My application using python/vtk/wxPython is crashing and I'd
appreciate any advice to help track and fix the error.

The software creates large polydata files which represent a lattice
structure made of line elements. The file which is crashing the
software has approximately 800k points and 3 million elements. I feel
the issues I'm hitting may be down to the size of the datasets I'm
using. Are there any known issues with working with datasets of this
size? The total system memory use is 1.59GB at the time of crashing.

Also when the software crashes the vtkOutputWindow pops up as a
separate window flashes past a load of messages and then goes white.
Is there any way to capture the output to this window so I can review
it's contents to help with the bug tracking? I'm using the
wxVTKRenderWindow.

Thanks for any help,

Wes.
