LightningChart® JS – The Fastest JavaScript Charts. Period.
LightningChart® has, since the beginning of its journey over 10 years ago, been about exceptionally at high-performance level. And now after the release of version 3.0.0, we can with confidence say that LightningChart JS has also risen to the level where LightningChart controls are used to perform – well above any other JavaScript chart.
In recent Line charts performance comparison test, none of the competitors got even close to LightningChart performance level. LightningChart’s initial rendering time is smallest or amongst the smallest, it runs with very compact memory footprint, with lowest CPU overhead, and fastest response to mouse interactions, reaching higher usable data point rates than any other chart.
We have gathered on one page all the information relevant to performance of LightningChart JS. From there you will find access to performance comparison, performance demo, and performance test results.
LightningChart’s strength definitely is the exceptional rendering performance, allowing to build very advanced and data-intensive applications. We are very proud of what we have done, broken all the previous performance limits in JavaScript charting.
