If you want to try clearing out the cached data you can reset the
cache in the message box:
set the dgCache["data"] of group "DataGrid" to empty
set the dgCache["sequencing"] of group "DataGrid" to empty
I wonder, though, if by accident you checked "cache controls" rather
than unchecking "persistent data"? With 57 megs of data I could see
Rev seeming to lock up if the data grid was trying to draw a control
for every single record you have (cache controls = true) rather than
just the visible controls like a data grid normally does.

I don't think it is any different then other platforms. Should be
right alongside the stack file.
