Details:

the attached plots show that octave does not seem to handle large outside
legends very well. Compared to using qt as toolkit (O.qt.png) gnuplot seems
somewhat better (O.gp.png), but not as good as ML (ML.png).

The corresponding script to create the figures was


graphics_toolkit qt
plot(randn(10, 20);
legend(repmat({'legend'}, 1, 20), 'location', 'eastoutside');
print O.qt.png;
