Hi, thanks for your repleys. I have tried matplotlib but it is extremely slow. I think it is more optimized for good looking plots instead of speed. I do not know the Python bindings of gnuplot and Veusz. To clarify the issue again, by 25000 data points I mean 25000 pixels, i.e. corresponding

Hello Daniel, Can someone recommend me a faster plotting library? I found out gnuplot to be blazing fast for many many points. I usually just call it using subprocess but there are Python bindings to it somewhere as well. HTH, -- Miki miki.teb...@gmail.com http://pythonwise.blogspot.com --

Are you sure about these numbers? Most monitors refresh at 70-80Hz, so unless you have special display hardware, I'm suspicious of these numbers doubt . I once had a user post to the matplotlib mailing list that xplt was refreshing at 1000 Hz. I think xplt drops plot requests while requests are

I like Ploticus. It's a bit kludgy for integration, you need to send the data to a file and have ploticus read it, but this can be easily done using memory mapped files. It's a very fast package and it produces very nice plots. SVG plots too. We use an svg viewer and then reload the svg tree to
