[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59370] Plotting produces wrong output or takes long time, depending on graphics toolkit

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #59370 (project octave):

It is perfectly fine to deliberately create three figures at the same time,
each using a different graphics toolkit.
I don't know why that should be prevented.

Only the interface to gnuplot is "one-way". The other two graphics toolkit are
"part" of Octave. But I agree that this could probably be better documented.
(A good place for this might be section "15.1 Introduction to Plotting" of the
manual.)

The interface to gnuplot really is one-way. There is no way to check whether a
reusable figure exists.

Using the commands you showed so far, I was not able to reproduce the high CPU
usage and long delay you describe.
Could you please provide the exact steps that trigger the slowness for you?
