I see the same thing.  This has nothing to do with the data source.
 
The issue is that it takes a while to process and re-draw a 46million point 
vector.
 
Re-drawing in this situation will always be ~slow as adding new data means 
recalculating the whole curve: adding new data the end will rescale the curve 
in X, every time.  I might be able to come up with some faster min/max caching 
method which would sacrifice pixel-level accuracy for speed. 
 
But this won't happen for 2.0.8.
 
As a work around: if the data are slowly varying, you might consider doing a 
skip-read to read every 100th point or something like that, which will speed 
things up dramatically.
