Thanks.  I will look into trying this out.

The problem is, when I work through the post log-processing plotting steps the output file has a lot of data points making the eps file quite large(~300M).  When trying to open this file under preview on my local mac, preview crashes.  I tried using gnu plot to plot this large data set and the output file was just as large.

Is there any way of telling the plot routine(gnu plot or the plotter Justin made with JFreeChart) to do this for me?  What other techniques could I try to shorten the amount of data that is being plotted?
