[Matplotlib-users] Is Gtk draw() slow?

[steve g. <ste...@op...>]

Hi,

I don't have conclusive proof, .. but I suspect that the draw() of a 
graph in a pyGTK application is order of magnitudes slower than I can 
plot the same data in the default Tk graphing widget.

i.e. 5 sec in tk, ... and >1 minute in gtk

Obvious question, ... is this a know issue?
Is there any tricks in gtk to speed up the draw()

Attached is a heavily snipped example of bits and pieces of my code, 
maybe I have structured my program incorrectly?

Thanks for any comments
Steve
