        The series markers are painted into a single
        <code>&lt;canvas&gt;</code> while the axes, grid, zoom selection,
        legend, and shared tooltip stay as SVG. With <b>renderer: 'auto'</b> the
        canvas layer switches on once the rendered-mark count crosses
        <code>rendererThreshold</code> (8,000), so 2,000 points draw as SVG and
        10,000+ promote to canvas. Switch the Renderer control to <b>svg</b> at
        50,000+ points to feel the difference: the DOM-node count jumps from a
        few dozen to one node per marker.
