core: fix for off-by-one issue in strip chart. Increases buffer
size for longer displays.
I have no idea why this should be a problem, the buffer-shifting for
stripchart mode is all done on the C++ side, and the updates are
done at a fairly lazy rate (a few Hz). So it's probably an issue on
the Python side with bigger plot buffers. Perhaps there's some kind of
N**2 scaling ugliness going on that wasn't immediately obvious to me
when I did that patch.
I think ultimately, the plotting stuff has to move so that most of the
computational stuff is done in C++ land, with only the thinnest pieces
done on the Python side.
So performance degradation seems to scale with the size of
OUTPUT_RECORD_SIZE in gr_oscope_guts.cc. This basically determines how
big the messages are that are sent along to the plotter routines in
Python, but the STRIPCHART routine uses it to store the strip-chart
samples in.
