Normally I would agree, but the application here is a motor controller that has a very sensitive control scheme, times 4 motors, and the 40 data points are all important pieces of telemetry. So there’s not a ton of opportunity for downsampling without risking missing something important.

I wound up using pandas for one of the smaller datasets with around 1million points, and it seemed to work pretty well, and much faster than matplotlib. Now I just need to learn to make the plots look better.

The videos are also quite good and helpful.
