The current version of ParaView (4.2.1) uses a fairly old version of HDF5 (API 
version 1.8.9). This version has a nasty bug on OS X that will not allow HDF5 
to read a data set that is larger than 4GB (2^32). This is due to a bug in the 
configuration process that incorrectly identifies a "size_t" as being unsigned 
32 bit integer on Darwin instead of a 64 bit unsigned integer. What is the 
possibility of getting a newer HDF5 included in ParaView for the next release?

BTW. a new release of HDF5 is coming in a few weeks. This would make a great 
opportunity to get this fixed with the latest version of HDF5.

Thanks
Mike Jackson
