Hi Emanuel,
Thanks for your patience.
The fixed range of chart axis (for minimum and maximum property) does not calling the UpdateArea(). And when we change the axis range by updating the chart datapoint and resizing the chart, the axis label has been updated by calling of ChartArea(). This is the current structure of SfChart in wpf.
Hence, we have already logged the feature request for improving the performance of WPF chart. Please track the status of the feature from the below feedback link, which will be included in any of our upcoming release.
Regards,
Yuvaraj.
