It seems to be related only to the height scaling near as I can tell, as
though it begins to break down the triangle mesh thing of the HF.  Possible that
it could be any large scaling that would do this too but I only saw it doing it
with large y scales, large x or z scales didn't cause any problems.
  Another thing I found by trying this scene file out is that when I
Ctrl-Alt-Del out of MegaPov (it essentially becomes unstoppable within the
program) there are leftover MegaPovs left running even though it has been End
Task'd.
It had gotten slower to load on each subsequent run and then I realized there
were multiple instances of MegaPov left behind.  A real major crash then I
guess, or at least mysterious.
