Cairo?! Your attachments have been stripped (or you forgot to attach them), but latest R versions use the Cairo graphics 'engine', which produces higher quality output at a speed cost. You can fire up a non-Cairo device with X11(type="Xlib"). The difference in speed is a factor 5 on my machine: > X11(type="Xlib") > system.time(pairs(USJudgeRatings)) user system elapsed 0.176 0.004 0.407 > system.time(pairs(USJudgeRatings)) user system elapsed 0.836 0.252 2.398 Cairo graphics can look a bit 'blurred' because of the anti-aliasing.
