Pointools export - Gathering data for POD never ends?

Hi.

I want to save my edited pointclouds..

I use(d) to save/merge my edited pointclouds so the edits are permanently "baked" into a new pointcloud.

However, I am having issues with exporting now.

Why do I save them?

I do this so the rendering of a movie inside pointools happens as smoothly as possible. The "old" pointools failed doing this, so I got the connect edtition today. (The speed of rendering on screen has definitly improved, but there is alot of rendering issues with the edited clouds: points dissapear, whole blocks are missing etc. These errors were present in the "old" pointools, and seems to be still present in the connect one. Hopefully the movie rendering issues has been fixed, so the movie doesn't suffer from these, and doesn't crash every 1000 frames - I have yet to try this.)

What do I do

I choose the export, all visible points (assuming this means the visible clouds), and off it goes.

What happens / doesn't happen / How can you Help me

It takes ~15 minutes for pointools to complete a ~15gb file - thats fine, but then all hell breaks loose, and I don't know how to stop it!? Or if I should just let it run a few days?

After the initial file is made on my HDD, it begins / shows a process of "Gathering data for POD file".
The status area in pointools (bottom left) flickers between (at least) these four different status messages:

1. Gathering data for POD file: iteration 205862 using up to 6288373Mb for buffer. (The iteration count is counting up.)
2. Writing data to POD file.
3. Filtering data..
4. Ready : Free navigation, use LMB etc..

Sometimes it even shows a progress bar in front of these messages.. I have no way to tell if it is moving. I did however take two screenshots with ~10 minutes interval, overlayed in photoshop, and that revealed no progress!. I'd say the progressbar is ~33% filled.

There is however nothing updated in files on the HDD.

Files exported as of now

mycloud.pod_tmp#7660 - ~15gb.
mycloud.pod_recovery - 3kb
mycloud.pod - 38kb

and none of these files have been written to in the last 30 minutes.

More info..

Any suggestions on how to finish my work?
