Hi Sean, I don't know the answer since I don't deal with that many different unstructured grid file formats when reading data into PV. As far as I know, we don't mark too carefully which unstructured grid readers can partition data in parallel. My best advice for this is just to try it reading different data files yourself and see what happens -- not very helpful but the best suggestion I can give. If you need a sample data set, you can try cloning from git://vtk.org/VTKData.git which should have most of the data formats you're interested in.
