I had some success with Apache::GD::Graph.

It works only on Apache servers and you must of course have the possibility to install this mod-perl Apache module, as well as making some changes to the config-file.

To use it you include an <img>tag with the datapoints, labels, type of graph, ... as parameters of the URL pointing to the virtual location of this module.

It's quite fast and it caches your graphs so it will not recalculate the graph if it is not necessary.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
