Plotting >500 curves verry slow since new plotting mode appeared?

4 views (last 30 days)
I have been plotting many 1000 curves (double with ~32000 points in each line) in matlab with regular "plot" function and have recently experienced that it is very slow. I have increased Java Heap memory to 4 GB but it doesnt help .
I have a vage memory that the shift happened around the same time that the new plot features appeared, ie the tools in the right top corner. Could this be the reason? if so is there any way of forcing some plots to use the old method?

that is a valid question but sometimes I actually need it. The question is why I experience is slower nowadays...

Found the error in my own code. I was changeing the color of the lines in a bad way (going through the properties of each line one by one). Now using colororder it’s much better.

Try disabling the toolbar
ax = axes();
ax.Toolbar = [];
Also, try disabling the interactions if you don't need it: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/disabledefaultinteractivity.html
