Extremely disparate polygons crash. #6

E.g. the entire US with HI, AK and Puerto Rico. Investigate why.

Relatedly, I have experienced slow processing with assign_polygons function when using fairly large shapefiles (>8000 polygons, Output Areas). On a standard home laptop, this has been running for 24 hours (still running). Any advice would be appreciated on whether this is (1) laptop processing power related, (2) a standard issue with disparate polygons or (3) normal, given the size of the shapefile.

Either way, great package - it works perfectly for the same region at Middle Super Output Area level.
