Hello matplotlib users,

I'm using matplotlib to plot some large data sets (1 million x,y
pairs) and I've noticed that, when zoomed out to view the whole plot,
it looks as if only every Nth point is being plotted, maybe in an
attempt to improve plotting performance in complex plots.  When I zoom
in I can see points that were clearly missing in the zoomed-out view.
Is there any way to override this so that the plot really does show
all the points, regardless of zoom?  I've included my really simple
plotting code below, and I'm using the "scipy superpack" (python 2.5,
matplotlib-0.98.6) on an OS X 10.5.7 Mac.

Many thanks for any help!

into numpy.arrays
        pylab.plot(chronos, freqs)
        pylab.show()
