If your data is on a quadrilateral mesh, try using the pcolormesh
function.  It is orders of magnitude faster than pcolor and we
solved the black lines problem by using transparency on the mesh
grid (though of course you can use 'flat' if you want).  We only
implemented this for the Agg backend, otherwise it falls back to
the pcolor style rendering of a collection of polygons.
