Hi, I want to open CASE file. The file size is 2.5GB including other files.  
When I use 1core, I can open it.  
But I use over 14core, I can’t open it. And crash pvserver.  
Do you know the solution?  
The machine which work pvserver has 36core.

I attached ERROR\_LOG.  
[pvserver\_error\_log.txt](https://discourse.paraview.org/uploads/short-url/s3JG19f7QkPlxz8yx9EcBQLpg0e.txt) (119.9 KB)

I try to open example paraview file with 36core.  
It can open.

You will need to share your dataset.

Hi Mathieu Westphal,  
The dataset is not mine. So I can’t share.  
It is possible to try the settings your order.  
Have you heard similar trouble?

Sadly, without data this will be complex to debug
