Too much panning / zooming will cause various browsers to crash and / or hang. Even "maps.google.com" will eventually die. I do not have a complete test bed - just Firefox & Internet Explorer. It might be interesting to know the level of abuse each browser can endure. Replacing tiles requires reallocating memory because image sizes are different. It is a test of the ability to collect garbage / reallocate memory without leakage and / or fragmentation. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
