Hi, I have more than 300 models that I want to load into Slicer at the same time, each is around 100-150 megabytes. Slicer was able to load all of them but when I tried to set one of the model visible along with a color legend bar using a custom module button, Slicer crashed and produced these error logs:

[WARNING][Qt] 17.06.2019 15:14:01 (unknown:0) - QWindowsWindow::setGeometry: Unable to set geometry 1602x1137+1920+23 on QWidgetWindow/‘qSlicerMainWindowWindow’. Resulting geometry: 1600x1137+1920+23 (frame: 8, 31, 8, 8, custom margin: 0, 0, 0, 0, minimum size: 1602x537, maximum size: 16777215x16777215).
This does not happen if I only load around 150 or less models. Should I use another machine with larger memory or what is the error indicating here? Also, these models were originally Abaqus volumes that I have converted into vtu using the scripts available here with some modifications (GitHub - Liujie-SYSU/odb2vtk: Python script converts Abaqus ODB files to VTK format for Paraview visualisation). Thanks!
