That said, once you're up and running, plots (and everything else) are super snappy. When I'm doing plotting stuff, I'm usually doing it interactively, and when I'm scripting it, it's because I'm plotting hundreds or thousands of things (and then the startup time is vanishingly small).
For context, I come from using MATLAB interactively. When doing that kind of work, the MATLAB 'whos' command is like /bin/ls, it's hard to do much without it.
Is there a different command in julia for showing all numerical arrays/matrices/tensors in memory and their dimensions from the repl? whos() seems like another direct analog of MATLAB, but maybe there's something better that isn't unreasonably slow?
