Jeff, thanks for pointing this out. An inadvertant side-effect of using
add_subplot() for 3d axes seems to be that the creation process greatly
restricts the available space for the 3d figure to be plotted. Whereas
doing the old Axes3D() approach (albeit for non-subplots) would allow the 3D
figure to use all the available space.
I am currently examining this issue right now and might be tied to another
bug that has been reported recently.
