If you have read your searches on developing a progress bar for
loading of Google Maps you will already know that there are no events
triggered when the Map is finally loaded. You DO get an event
triggered when an Overlay is loaded, but as with the map loading, this
is triggered when the Javascript is executed, NOT when the tiles,
images etc are finally loaded or retrieved from cache, and it is that
timing that your user sees ;-(

The problem lies with caching. I have a page that loads a slab of
markers from an xml file. First time up the markers are loaded before
the map tiles have finished loading. Next time, when everything is
loaded from cache, everything appears to load simultaneously.

Try ticking the progress bar on the addoverlay event, but it may not
give reliable results! ;-)
