Look at:
www.polyarc.us/poly
It does not "buffer" images but it does toggle the "style.display"
property of a lot of "DIV" layers. It does very few reloads. Zooming
is immediate if the same map has been seen previously. Switching map
types (Street, Physical, Aerial, Hybrid) is also immediate in similar
conditions. Unfortunately, panning does require the map to be
reloaded because the center has changed.
