Greetings,
I'm working on a project which currently has ~25 different overlays. I noticed, however, that when I have this many overlays that the performance of the map is really poor. Specifically, panning is not smooth at all, it takes much longer to redraw on pans, and the zoom box is very unresponsive. I ran a few tests. In one of them I had my 25 overlays and added only a single layer to one of them. I then ran the same test where I only had 1 overlay and added that same file. In the version where I only had 1 overlay, the performance was MUCH better than the one with many overlays despite displaying the exact same data.
My question is what is the maximum number of overlays one can have while still having an efficient application? Is there something else I can do to make the application more efficient?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you for your time.
.Ryan.
