I had the same problem (on R2.1.0 on Win XPSP2), let me just add, in case it
is of any help:
1) that even when the plot works in 2.1.0 it takes much longer than in
R2.0.1
2) this is worse if plot(x,type="l") is used (17sec versus 1sec for the
type="l" plot with a vector of length 15000)
example
I can confirm that on my system running Windows 2000 that the
command using R 2.1.0 hangs -- the graphics window appears but
nothing happens subsequently. Under 2.0.0 it works okay.

Windows XP SP2
I installed the precompiled version of R 2.1.0
This isn't the data I was originally trying to graph, b
