Did you produce any output with savefig? 50 plots per second sounds pretty fast - at least on my computer, the matplotlib examples render much slower than that, so I suspect your test script might not have really caused the backends to render anything. Anyway, if you want to compare the execution time of the interactive backends, I suppose the best reference would be the Agg backend, which does the same rendering without any of the interactiveness. -- Jouni K.
