I tried the suggested clean-up but saw no difference in performance. I
left out a crucial piece of information, I think, in my earlier message.
The delay in drawing occurs when I'm running the code from within
ipython, invoked with the -pylab flag. When I run it directly from the
command line, I get no such delay. I presume this is backend dependent.
For my current purposes, just running it directly from the command line
(i.e. something like: % python do_fits.py) works for me. The ability to
interactively examine variables, as one can when running within ipython,
would be nicer, however.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
