[MINC-users] using Display with large volumes

at the shell, try
	setenv VOLUME_CACHE_THRESHOLD -1

you should then be able to load in the entire volume without swapping,  
if you have enough memory on your machine.  Display and register both  
had some kind of internal limit to the amount of memory used.  An SGI  
throwback perhaps?
