Hi everybody, I'm new to this forum, and I am not entirely sure if this is the right place to post this question, so please direct me to the right corner if that should be the case.
Ok - to the technical bit now: I am using paraview 4.3.1 to load a 2gb vtk dataset. One the volume is loaded, I see a memory increase of about 7gb. Now, as a very first thing, I want to clip the volume, to about a 10th (with the box option selected from the clip menu). Now, I set up the box from which I want to extract the volume - but the entire rest of physical memory (about 5gb) gets eaten up plus another 32gb swap space. By than, paraview gets killed and I have to start all over again. So why is it that selecting a small range out of a 7gb volume ends up taking least 37gbs of memory? Thanks. Dinu.
