ParaView crashes when loading a large ASCII VTK file

When I try to load a VTK file which is approximately 100mb in size in ParaView the program crashes. However, if I reduce the size of the file by selecting fewer data points (average size now approximately 30mb) it gets loaded without any problems.

I am not sure if it is something to do with memory management of Windows 7 OS. The system I am using is a Dell T7500, Xenon 2.65 GHz twin core, with 24 GB of RAM.

Sounds like a possible issue with paraview 64 bit ids. If you compiled from source, make sure VTK_USE_64BIT_IDS is enabled. If the pre-compiled binary it must be 64 bit.
