JavaScript dynamic Line Charts with many points (~500,000) [closed]

Question

I am surveying JavaScript charting solutions for building interactive dashboards. The dashboard is going to have 15 charts, each with 6 lines, and each line has ~5000 points (15 * 6 * 5000 = 450,000). And a new point will be appended (and an old point be removed) to each line about every 3 secs. In addition, I want interactive box zooming and tooltips.

Is this possible without intervalizing(downsampling) the source data? Can anyone recommend JavaScript solutions to try?

I came across Flotr2, Rickshaw, jqChart, HighCharts, I am wondering if people can share first hand experience for such use case.

In case this is not a realistic goal, what would the closest performance be with today's technology?

Answer 1

I think jqChart can meet your requirements:

jqChart takes advantages of HTML5 Canvas to deliver high performance client-side charts and graphs across browsers ..

The render speed of the Line Chart is optimized for handling a large set of data. This line chart example shows 2 series at 60,000 points each.
