Question

我想在python中实现一个快速滚动时间跟踪工具。时间跟踪数据已经全部存储在numpy数组中并且很大（> 1e6个样本）。我需要一种快速视觉检查的工具。

我already tried使用Matplotlib + PySide，但更新速度不够快。

你可以在像pygraphqt / chaco / quiqwt这样的另一个工具包中重现Matplotlib+Pyside demo吗？我不知道他们中的任何一个，我愿意学习在这个应用程序中表现更好的那个。

为了在我的工作流程中有用，所选框架应该允许从交互式ipython会话运行绘图，并且应该是快速且可扩展的（最终我需要在同一窗口上同步滚动几个图）。原则上pyqtgraph，guiqwt或chaco都是好的候选人。但让我们判断一个真实的例子。

感谢。

这是pyqtgraph版本。我试着保持代码尽可能与原始演示相似。在我的系统上，pyqtgraph只比matplotlib运行快约5倍，并且当所有数据都可见时仍然很慢（~1fps）。 matplotlib和pyqtgraph之间的主要性能差异在于吞吐量 - 新数据的绘制速度有多快。

为了获得更好的性能，我建议您查看一些基于GPU的绘图库，如visvis或galry。 Pyqtgraph将来会增加GPU支持，但它还没有。还有一些努力将matplotlib引入GPU，但我还没有看到任何结果......
