[Solved]-Hiding _groups_ of series in Highcharts and jQuery: how to get acceptable performance?-Highcharts

the issue here is that highcharts is redrawing the chart after every series change. i checked the api to see if there was a param you could pass to defer that, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

instead, you can stub out the redraw method until you are ready, like so:

var _redraw = chart.redraw;
chart.redraw = function(){};

//do work

chart.redraw = _redraw;
chart.redraw();

check out the full example here. for me, it was about 10 times faster to do it this way.
