I'm just backing up Friedrich's and Gary's observations. Same system
configuration (dual processors though), same symptoms - even the weird
display problems in Stata after generating the plots.

Friedrich,
Yes, the results/symptoms you describe are reproducible on my system with
the
example you provided. My system is similar to yours, so this may be of
limited
help to the Stata Technical Support folks.
Win XP Pro version 5.1.2 SP 1
Stata/SE 8.2 for Windows - executable and ado's up-to-date
Additionally, the Stata session from which the example is executed
subsequently
becomes unusable - with some odd display problems (Stata windows are
incompletely displayed, command line characters appear as vertical bars as
they
are typed in.)
The example does seem a bit extreme - effectively asking Stata to place
47000
marker labels on the plot (though mostly superimposed). The problems don't
occur if the -,mlabel(freq)- option is removed from the graph command.
