Comment on Show HN: XY – A Fast, composable, GPU-accelerated interactive plotting library

Comments

Interesting; how do the examples compare to datashader?

Edit: for my use cases, I use napari (~1e7-8 points) if I need true interactivity; otherwise, datashader/holoviz, or even just fast-histogram's 2D histograms work.

For extremely large point clouds, these caveats[0] still apply. It irks me when people make dense scatterplots without any indication of just how dense some portions are.

Still, if it can indeed handle 1e10 points, that's pretty impressive.
