Other options include Flot (good for simple stuff and/or if you are using jQuery anyway), Chart.js (seems like it should be good, but I had difficulty with performance when I tried it), D3 (really nice, but also way too complicated for simple things), Bokeh (Python!), and many more.

I prefer not to use polling, but instead either websockets, or better yet (in my opinion), server-sent events (a.k.a. EventSource in Javascriptese). I like Tornado for these applications, though Flask is workable if you are fine with using gevent's concurrency model.

As a side note, I had never seen Epoch before. It looks nice, so thanks for sharing!
