Glenn, What version of numpy are you using? What version of matplotlib? And what are the dimensions of your image array? Eric G Jones wrote: Thank you for the suggestion. I now have the update time down to about 70 ms. When I run the code through the profiler, I see that each plot update

Numpy 1.0.3 and MPL 0.91.2. The image array is 256 x 1024. I found I could speed things up a lot (~15ms update time) by setting my data to be a 256 x 1024 x 4 array of uint8, so I guess the solution is to handle color mapping myself. I appreciate any other suggestions. Glenn On 4/15/08, Eric

Thank you for the suggestion. I now have the update time down to about 70 ms. When I run the code through the profiler, I see that each plot update requires a call to matplotlib.colors.Colormap.__call__, and each of these calls takes 52 ms, 48 ms of which is spent inside the function itself. This

I just use blit on imshow map, and work properly. Maybe the following code will help you. def ontimer() canvas.restore_region(background) im.set_array(Z) ax.draw_artist(self.imList[i]) canvas.blit(ax.bbox) canvas.gui_repaint() -- View this message in context:

2008-04-10 Thread G Jones
Hello, I want to use imshow to make a real time waterfall plot. The attached code is the core of my application, and it works, but it is quite slow, around 200ms to update the plot. Is there a way to accelerate this? I have seen the blitting demos, and they work well for the line plots, but I
