Public bug reported: Binary package hint: qtiplot
What I expected to happen: A quick plotting of my data. What happened instead: Everytime I try to plot some big table (i.e. 100K+ rows), qtiplot freezes for several minutes. And worse: if I edit something, the re-plot takes the same unnecessary amount of time. Sincerely, this almost makes me give up of qtiplot, but today I accidentally discovered that this precious plot time could be drastically reduced by disabling "antialiasing" in the menu Format>Plot. This turns the "lots of freezed minutes" in "some few (non-freezed) seconds"! So, concluding, I highly recommend that the antialiasing be DISABLED by default, so other people do not pass the same trouble I've been experiencing for months...
