Hi,

I've worked with large models some time ago (I think it was about 40 Mb) and
I didn't have this problem (I was using vtk 4.2 at the time). When ever I
use large models, I use the GlobalImmediateModeRenderingOn() method of the
mapper of the actor that renders the model. Also you might want to try to
see what happens if you call ResetCameraClippingRange() of the renderer when
the user left-clicks on the screen.
