+This example shows how to use a path patch to draw a bunch of
+rectangles. The technique of using lots of Rectangle instances, or
+the faster method of using PolyCollections, were implemented before we
+had proper paths with moveto/lineto, closepoly etc in mpl. Now that
+we have them, we can draw collections of regularly shaped objects with
+homogeous properties more efficiently with a PathCollection. This
+example makes a histogram -- its more work to set up the vertex arrays
+at the outset, but it should be much faster for large numbers of
+objects
