Well, if you look at Datsville a lot, that would probably be the reason. It
won't open in any version of LDView released to date. The next major LDView
release (3.0) will open it. I just opened town.dat, and while it took 25
seconds to load the file, it displayed it (and updated the display) in about a
second. That's just fast enough to interact without being too annoyed. Of
course, that's with an ATI 9700 Pro video card, which is fairly fast for
geometry.
