I don't think that Qhull is slow, slow is the searching of triangles in 
tsearch.
I'm using Sakov's "nn" (natural neighbors) library 
http://www.marine.csiro.au/~sakov/ that uses Lawson's "walking 
triangle" algorithm to search for a triangle given a point. "nn" uses 
"triangle", which not free software, but I have adapted it to work with 
Qhull.
plgriddata() will soon be integrated into PLplot.
