Hi Greg,

Thanks for the link i tested with FF, IE8 and Chrome.
Your map needs a lot of memory but the amount stays stable. I looked
into your code and couldn't see any refresh function. I suppose you're
loading all maps for different hours but only once when the page is
loaded. So, it's not completely the sameproblem.
It would interesting to include a timer to reload only the overlyas
and see what happens.

Btw, i get a Google map key warning at loading, but it works.

I still don't see any workaround to my problem...

Cheers,
