Tkinter与matplotlib FuncAnimation累积延迟致GUI冻结问题求助

我基于Python 3开发了一个Tkinter项目，用于绘制不同传感器的实时数据：

• 用Tkinter搭建GUI，通过matplotlib.animation.FuncAnimation实现每1秒更新一次的实时绘图
• 点数较少时运行正常，但超过300-400点后开始出现延迟累积，最终冻结。初始数据获取间隔约1秒，随时间推移间隔呈线性增长
• 绘制“迭代次数-X轴、迭代间隔-Y轴”的图表可复现问题，延长更新间隔结果一致
• 尝试将动画函数放入独立线程无效；仅用延迟数据更新Tkinter标签无此问题，说明问题与绘图创建/更新相关
• 开启/关闭blit均无帮助，倾向于关闭blit
