Hello, @soetji thank you for reporting a bug!

Minimal demo: https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/a2vwnsq6/1/

internal note
The problem seems to be connected with null points, but also some conditions must be met, for bugs to occur:

• Boost must be enabled
• The extremes must be manually set for all axes (not necessary to overlap with the part, where the null points are)
• The data must be passed as an array of values

Workaround

for your example:
https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/fpan9dqv/

Don't set the xAxis extremes, or for each point add its x value

Is this bug going to be fixed? I know there is a workaround.
