I am building an electrical data acquisition box that will link to my
PC. I need to draw lots of lines (millions) from this data in my client
program. GDI+ appears too slow, even with double buffering, etc. Could
you direct me to managed code resources such as books or links that can
help me with this?

Thanks,

Do you mean millions of lines per second or millions of lines on the screen
at once (my monitors don't even have millions of pixels)?

Without going to the hardware directly, something like DirectX is probably
your best bet. The managed System.Drawing classes use GDI+ as well.

I would post in microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.drawing newsgroup.

Also I would think you would only need to draw the items/lines in the
current viewport?
But with more details about the task people may be able to offer more ideas.
