Ken and Phil:  Thank you both for your input.

Phil your sample scrip helped a lot.

Ken, yes, I am locking the screen before the updating the chart.   I don't know 
anything about the layer mode so I guess I need to learn more about that.   I 
have always been a bit confused about when and when not to use the touch 
handlers as opposed to the mouse.   Is it safe to say that you should stick 
with the mouse handlers unless you are interested in detecting multiple touch 
events?   And I am in fact using them both so I need to fix that.   Any idea 
why the frequency difference between the touch and mouse?  I would have 
expected them to be the same.

Thanks again,
   Mike
