I'm using C# .Net 4.0 Client and Map Suite WPF Desktop 6 with latest production build from 5/2/2013. Am I ok just loading a couple hundred files into an overlay or is it still recommended to use the MultiGeoRasterLayer? I can't see a difference but then I'm running an i7 with 8GB ram and an SSD. So, for example, I am loading 300 of geotiff files at 2 and 5 meter resolutions into one overlay configured as thus:
// Create the new overlay
overlay = new LayerOverlay
{
Name = overlayName,
TileCache = new FileBitmapTileCache(CacheDirectory.FullName, overlayName),
TileBuffer = 3,
TileType = TileType.SingleTile, // Was Multiple Tile 5/2/2013
TransitionEffect = TransitionEffect.Stretch,
LockLayerMode = LockLayerMode.DoNotLock, // New 5/2/2013
DrawingExceptionMode = DrawingExceptionMode.DrawException
};
overlay.TileCache.TileAccessMode = TileAccessMode.ReadAddDelete;
overlay.TileCache.ImageFormat = TileImageFormat.Png;
If I do this a lot with various other map types grouped into various similar overlays will this be trouble? Suggestions?
Thanks!
