Mike, This is a known problem with ParaView 3.4.0. The next version of ParaView should have much more robust volume rendering.
Volume rendering is (mostly) clean in the trunk. You can build a version of your own (see the ParaView web site wiki - http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView, then building and installing instructions) for details.

From the dataset, I selected the "Temp" variable, and the "Volume" representation. The application then seems to nearly hang, except for occasional updates of a progress bar which says "OpenGLProjectTetrahedraMapper: <n>" where <n> appears to be a percent complete indicator. It eventually gets to 100, but then just starts over again at 1. Each cycle takes about 5 minutes and never ends. I have to force quit the application to get out of it. My system is Intel Core 2 Duo, 64-bit Fedora 10, with an ATI 4850 graphics card. I installed paraview from the Fedora repository using yum. Paraview version is 3.4.0. I'm not using a remote server.
