Arnd,

What file format are you using?

As JUMP loads the whole file into memory I would recommend setting the
heap size on the JAVA VM to be -Xmx512M if you are dealing with large
datasets.

You mentioned that the height is an attribute on the feature, if you use
the height as a z-value on the point itself there will be some memory
savings.
