Hi Marshall,
You might want to have a look at https://github.com/aphyr/gnuplot
>From the repo: "Datasets are streamed as sequences directly to gnuplot's
stdin, so there's no temporary files to worry about. Yep, lazy sequences
are streamed lazily. My laptop can plot about 10 million points in about a
minute, and most of the CPU time is spent inside gnuplot in that test, so
I'm reasonably happy."
Cheers,
Joachim.
