Dynamically Generating a Graph in Python

[HansWL]

It would be interesting to know where this performance hit is coming
from. What happens if you set backend : TkAgg and interactive : True
in your rc file, and then fire up a standard python shell


In interactive mode, all the plotting commands are acted upon when
they are issued, which should enable you to debug which of these
commands, if any, causes the long delay.

Finally got sometime to try again. Seems most time was spent importing
(30 seconds). So in interactive mode, I imported once, then execfiled
your examples with import commented out. Now the figures came on
within seconds.
