Re: Very slow mesh on MacOS X

[Robert A. Macy]

I use octave 2.1.50a on Windows 98

and *never* use mesh, way too slow

I write special scripts to display meshed items, using the
gsplot commands

display 200 by 1000 in around 1/2 second on a 750MHz
machine

I found mesh only is fast enough on 20 by 40, or such
