.... that should probably read "most modules". The vector modules which
deal with huge LIDAR datasets have been specially modified to work with
no topology to avoid the finite per-point memory overheads.

However, the method on p256-257 does not
mention db or topology. Also, when I have tried to run
v.oultier without db/topology it says it cannot as there is
no database. I will look at this again later. Maybe I
am not selecting 3D when I have tried without db etc.
