The problem is that I never quite finished pcolorfast; it probably needs a little more refinement in argument handling, and it needs to detect nonlinear axes. The latter never even occurred to me when I wrote it, since that case does not occur in the applications for which I use it. For now, try using pcolormesh instead of pcolorfast. It will handle log axes, and although probably not quite as fast as pcolorfast could be if it correctly handled log axes, it will be *much* faster than pcolor.
