Has anyone had experience with HUGE LDraw files or MPD files (thousands of
parts)? What are the effects? Do they crash some programs, or make them
unusably slow? Just curious.

Thanks!

Datsville is IMHO a HUGE model, with its 2Mb+ and several sub-models used
multiple times.

MLCAD is out of the question, but L3Lab is acceptable: 6.3-13 seconds,
depending on zoom factor and other preferences. No problem with L3P, but I
haven't even tried POV with Q>1...

Dumb question... but where is Datsville hosted right now, and who maintains
it? There should be a link on LDraw.org, but there isn't to my knowledge.
I'll fix that on a long overdue wave of updates sometime in the relative
near future.

Thanks!
