Strange behavior in smooth pgfplot with sudden changes in the slope

I'm trying to plot some points with sudden changes in the slope. But I get some strange behavior like this:

as you can see in the peaks, there is no smoothness in there.

However, I think the problem is the interpolation algorithm, because tikz uses bézier curves. So I'm wondering is there a way to overcome this problem?

I'm putting here just a sample of the data. However, I have several plots with these discontinuities, and I would like to get an automatic way of fixing them. If you need I can show more points in which discontinuities occur.

It appears to me as if you have a lot of samples. If you can sample your underlying function so densely, you can probably use the default line style sharp plot instead of smooth. Your example immediately and automatically looks great if you uncomment smooth. Note that smooth should be considered as "draw something somehow nicely" rather than "interpolate strictly using high order interpolation". – Christian Feuersänger Dec 2 '11 at 20:54

You can add and play with the tension=0.08 option to the axis (the smaller the number, sharper it gets within the scale [0,1].
