KIU Shueng Chuan 2f4ceee1ce fix RemoteSpeedTest shutdown errors
fix BufferError: cannot close exported pointers exist
for some reason, even though the ctypes object falls out of function
scope, it causes a lingering reference.
in any case, the use of ctypes is no longer necessary.

Don't change temporary files mid-way for Darwin
This fixes the CI issues on Darwin.

close the remote process on app shutdown.

"""
This example demonstrates the use of RemoteGraphicsView to improve performance in
applications with heavy load. It works by starting a second process to handle
all graphics rendering, thus freeing up the main process to do its work.
In this example, the update() function is very expensive and is called frequently.
After update() generates a new set of data, it can either plot directly to a local
plot (bottom) or remotely via a RemoteGraphicsView (top), allowing speed comparison
between the two cases. IF you have a multi-core CPU, it should be obvious that the
remote case is much faster.
