IDL3.1: contour is broken (or sloooooooow) !!!! [message #1060] Mon, 14 June 1993 04:00

I installed IDL3.1 last week on my IBM RS/6000 (Mod.320). Today i tried to
use the `enhanced' CONTOUR-routine in order to produce filled contour plots
of my flow field:

IDL> CONTOUR, press, xc, yc, LEVELS=lvl, C_COLOR=colr, /FILL

press, xc and yc are all DBLARR(146, 362), i.e. the numerical grid is regular but
curvilinear. WITHOUT the /fill-keyword, I get a nice contour plot, although it
takes longer (compared to v3.0). WITH /fill I get --- nothing! The idl-process
grows to about 9Mbytes and uses 50% CPU time (there is another job running on my
machine):

24685 peba1231 92 0 15389K 7628K run 66:56 47.6% super
26893 peba1231 92 0 9443K 6752K run 41:51 47.2% idl
^^^^^
!!!! and still no contour plot

Is contour broken? Or maybe it uses MIN_CURV_SURF internally? I don't need
this, the numerical results are sufficiently smooth. What's going on???

PLEASE HELP !!!

Thanks,

Peter
