Fastplotlib: Driving scientific discovery through data visualization
I don't know Datashader that well, but from what I understand, it generates an image from a set of primitives (e.g. points), and then allows you to interactively inspect that image. It does not re-render the points on every frame like Fastplotlib/Pygfx does.
Depending on your GPU, you can render say 1-50 million points smoothly. Also see e.g. https://github.com/pygfx/pygfx/discussions/819

Emerging Rust GUI libraries in a WASM world
https://github.com/kushalkolar/fastplotlib
Alternatively, try pygfx for ThreeJS graphics in Python leveraging wgpu. It works great in Notebooks through notebook-rfb. https://github.com/pygfx/pygfx
If you're adventurous, figure out how to make pygfx work with webgpu via wasm

Chrome Ships WebGPU
FYI you can already use webgpu directly in python, see https://github.com/pygfx/wgpu-py for webgpu wrappers and https://github.com/pygfx/pygfx for a more high level graphics library

Extending Python with Rust
Rather than using matplotlib, you could try either pygfx (https://github.com/pygfx/pygfx) or fastplotlib (https://github.com/kushalkolar/fastplotlib) to make higher performance graphics using Python.
However, it won't solve your problem of Python not being fast enough doing the calculations.
