Plot cores for large data sets

Update: This problem turned out to be an intall issue. My app runs on some of our boxes but not others. Thanks all!

When using Plot (Xarray, Yarray, LineStyle); Matlab cores when the array length exceeds a couple thousand elements.

This may be a problem/bug in R2011b that was fixed in 2012.

What are the data limits Matlab can plot?

Can one determine programmatically the largest dimension of the X and Y data arrays that plot can handle?

What constrains the maximum length of X and Y data arrays that can be plotted (Memory, pixels, graphics card and/or licensed version of Matlab ...)?

Is DSPLOT available in Matlab R2011b? If so, what's its API?

It doesn't sound to me like it's an issue of the array sizes, if indeed Xarray, Yarray are vectors of length <10000. I can comfortably plot 10 million points.

What is size(Yarray) for a failure?

I think Walter meant that he would like to see the exact output of the command size(Yarray). This output would always be a vector of length at least 2 as in the following

>> Yarray=rand(2004,1); size(Yarray)

ans =

          2004           1

In particular, are we definitely talking about vector inputs? Additionally, what is the output of

 >> memory

According to my web search, DSPLOT has never been a stock MATLAB function, but there is a DSPLOT on the File Exchange,
