Selections are core to working with D3 beyond the basics. They're powerful and useful, but require new developers to get up to speed (e.g. set aside 30m to read and digest: https://github.com/mbostock/d3/wiki/Selections) and if used in the context of a larger application will result in a portion of the code using different patterns than the rest, requiring a translation layer in between.

The complexity and flexibility of D3.js results in it being a time-consuming tool to learn for many users. D3 is incredibly flexible; probably more so than any other JavaScript visualization library at the time of this posting. With that flexibility comes increased complexity. If you just want to create some quick charts you will get results faster with something else. See More
Objects in Paper make it easy to extend parent objects and run constructor functions without having to worry about JavaScript prototypal inheritance. Because of this it is easy to make compound drawing objects with their own instance variables and behaviors. Example: each swimming tadpole follows its own behavior These features make it easier to create objects that can act autonomously with complex behaviors. This makes Paper a good choice for particle effects and game development. See More
Paper uses a frame based approach to rendering the canvas. This makes it conceptually easier to create objects with animations and behaviors that interact and perform with other objects. Along with Paper's approach to creating and managing objects this makes Paper especially good for creating applications with complex behaviors with many elements doing different actions at once, and makes it a good choice for making games.

Because Processing doesn't keep track of shape objects it's more efficient than other libraries. Processing can do more complicated effects faster than other libraries. Although this means you have to keep track of more yourself in your code, it also means you have more control over the finer details of how things are rendered.

In processing you can write code in both JavaScript and Processing code. This allows you to use existing Processing code on the client side. Processing code is similar to Java in that it has static typing. This can make more complex calculations more robust, and less likely to cause conflicts. The library takes a more frame based approach to rendering, so you use drawing functions to draw directly to the frame without objects. This can make it easier to write efficient full frame rendering scenes and post processing effects. See More
Everything that is drawn in Raphael is an object which means it is easy to manipulate any part of the rendered image after it is processed. It uses an event handler system for user inputs which makes it easy to learn for JavaScript developers used to event based libraries. An interactive chart demo. This style of handling objects makes Raphael a good fit for rendering interactive diagrams and charts that can also interact with other parts of the page. See More
very easy to get chart with few lines of code. Easy to adjust it. See More
Besides having all consecrated charts like line, area, bar, horizontal bar, pie, bubble , it can have styles for line dots (solid dot, hollow dot, star, bow, anchor) or bar types (like dome, cylinder, parallelepiped). It has support for stacked bars, negative bars, combo bar-line charts, dual axis, click events and tooltips. See More
