1) Look at the bottom of the glyph filter's properties tab. Max number of points and random mode says pick 5000 points at random and only glyph those. If turning that off makes paraview slow consider the point sprite or manta plugins.
2) Use the gaussian resampling filter to push the values onto a regular grid and then isocontour that. David E DeMarle Kitware, Inc.
