Thanks for this information.  I agree with your assessment about 
file size and I'm thinking that perhaps it has something to do
with that.  That would be consistent with the problem where you
can load in a 2D field, but once you try a 3D field, even the 
2D fields don't work anymore.

Here is what I would like you to try next:

- Start the IDV with a trace flag and pipe the output to a file:

./runIDV -trace > foo.out

- Try to load in data and get it to a point where it hangs.

- Once it hangs, exit the IDV and then send me the foo.out file
as an attachment to an e-mail message.
