Yes all 1500 are shown.  The map when they are all show is very laggy
and I know we won't be able to do anything about that in IE (firefox
1500 markers is not as  much of a problem) but I will be using
checkboxes to show certain markers out of the 1500 for most of my
users.  However management will use all 1500 at times.  My question
though is how much script is involved in the removeOverlay() function
that it is processing over 5 million lines to remove 1500 markers.  Is
there somewhere I can see the code of that function or is it locked
away at google?  It just seems weird that I am hitting this barrier.
Clustering has been deemed our last resort.
