We’re getting ready to implement Google maps on our site. We’re using maps to display the locations of our stores across the U.S. We’re storing the data for the maps in a Google docs spreadsheet. In running some simulations on the page, we’re noticing increasingly slower response times as we ramp up the number of simulated users. With just a few users we have a response time of about .5 seconds. With 75 users the response time increases to 4 - 8 seconds. We anticipate many more users once our page goes live. The code that is slowing the response down is the code that accesses our Google docs spreadsheet.
Our thought is that the increase response time is due to the fact that all the calls to Google docs is coming from the same test server and that once we roll this out to our customers the calls to Google docs will be quicker since it’ll be distributed. Is this correct, or should we be doing populating our map differently?
