I use Cubit to generate ExodusII mesh. I have the same issue when I export
the mesh using "large file" format. Everything works fine with "normal"
file format. I do not known if there is the same option
 in paraview.

ExodusII is a format that we should consider supporting natively in DOLFIN.

It would be nice also to support the conversion of exodusII blocks, sidesets and nodesets to corresponding entities in dolfin.

Is native ExodusII support still being considered? This would be a really cool addition - particularly for large files.
