[vtkusers] How to manage a large VRML file

[Hugo Valdebenito]

Hi Sebastien,

Yes, I did try to load with paraView in my PC, with 250 MB is ok, but 500MB
the program crash in my computer. But my program with 250MB not works.

My question is, how to load a file with those sizes?. how to show the
progress for example?
