I am afraid my pipeline will get as big as about 10-15GB. We are doing
analysis on huge volume data and have 32GB of RAM at our disposal. Well,
I'll just give it a shot and may come back later when encountering some
explicit problems. I thought maybe there are important compilation
Parameters one should know to have QT compiled the "right" way. By the
way, this 1,4GB limit seems to be a good estimate, at least what I am
experiencing when working with small pieces of our volume data.
Until then, best regards,
Christian

I usually use a self-built Qt 4.6.2 with ParaView. I have to admit
that I have not done this in a while though, since maybe ParaView
3.6.2 days. I don't think I have ever had any problems with a self
compiled Qt and ParaView on any platform and operating system (Windows
32 XP, 7 x64, OS X, Linux).
In order to build a 64 bit ParaView you will need a 64 bit Qt. The
question is, do you really _need_ a 64 bit ParaView? Just because you
are running a 64 bit Windows doesn't mean you need to run a 64 bit
ParaView. You would need a 64 bit ParaView IF you are accessing Data
sets larger than 2GB or have a HUGE pipeline that will need more than
the 2GB limit of 32 bit processes**

Hi!
I am about to install the latest Paraview on a 64-Bit Windows System.
When doing this on a 32-bit Windows I made a bad and painful
experience when trying to setup everything starting with a
self-compiled QT. I finally succeeded when I skipped that QT
compiling part and used a QT binary instead that was compiled for
VisualStudio (this is important). However, you cannot download a
64Bit binary of QT for Windows in general.
I am shivering in fear when thinking about what will happen if I try
to do this QT compiling on the 64-Bit System. I see my self doing
this all over and over without success, as it happened before on the
32Bit system. So I wanted to be sure if that 64Bit version of QT is
actually needed for 64Bit Paraview. Maybe the binary 32Bit suffices
already?
If not, does anyone have experience in this? I stopped trying after
at least 3 differently parameterized compilations of QT turned out to
not be what Paraview was looking for. If I need to, how would I
compile QT to make it work with Paraview64 for Visual Studio?
Best regards,
Christian
