One popular technique I've seen is to take a non-uniform set of data,
and interpolate it using cubic splines to a uniformly spaced set of
points. Then an FFT is done on that. You lose some time and accuracy as
a result of doing the interpolation, but it's far faster than slow FFT,
and accurate enough for many purposes.
