Hi,

I have many pins I'd like to display on a map. I first tried adding
each as an Overlay, but this is way too slow, as each overlay tries
drawing itself even though it may not be visible within the screen
view.

So the question is, is one overlay instance supposed to be used per
pin? Or is there some more efficient data structure to use with it?

If we are supposed to use Overlay for this, I figured I could keep the
"mercator" unit of each of my overlay cached, then recalculate the
mercator unit of the top-left, bottom-right points of the map view to
figure if an overlay should be drawn or not, which will probably be
much faster.

I'm guessing there's already some built-in way to draw a large number
of Overlays, as google is known for fast algorithms and efficiency?

Thanks
