kernel shuts down during listplot

In at least the following situations, I have experienced that the kernel has shut down during evaluation. The thing is that there is no message at all when it shuts down.

SetDirectory[NotebookDirectory[]];
temp = Partition[Flatten[Import["temp.dat", "Table"]], 3];
ResetDirectory[];

ListContourPlot[temp]

P.S. The file temp.dat is in the following link: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7611247/temp.dat.

Why has the kernel shut down without any warning message? What can I check or how can I fix it?

Could you please edit your post and include the simplest example of the suspect code that is causing the kernel to crash? – leibs Oct 30 '13 at 05:55
Yes, I will. but nothing special. – Veteran Oct 30 '13 at 06:35
Even though I reduce the precision or accuracy of numbers in data, the problem wasn't solved. – Veteran Oct 30 '13 at 07:20

Or try ListContourPlot[temp, DataRange -> All]? – cormullion Oct 30 '13 at 08:19
Also, this happens if the dataset is too large and data isn't on a regular grid (at least it did on v8). – gpap Oct 30 '13 at 10:48
@cormullion Actually data is not on a regular grid. So the option "DataRange->All" doesn't solve the problem. – Veteran Oct 30 '13 at 12:15
@AlexeyPopkov It may be helpful. I will see. – Veteran Oct 30 '13 at 12:19
@gpap dataset is not too large, but isn't on a regular grid. I'm using v9 by the way. – Veteran Oct 30 '13 at 13:42
I thanks all comments. I realized data not on a regular grid is the problem. – Veteran Oct 30 '13 at 14:12
