Hi Anders, At present there's no way to measure the time to render a marker in v3. We're chatting about how to expose that for performance testing.
In case you hadn't considered it already: if you want to display thousands of markers we recommend KmlLayer. This requires that your server generate KML or geoRSS for your markers, but that's probably straight-forward if you're already generating JSON for the browser to display markers. KmlLayer can handle thousands of markers because it renders the markers as an image tile layer, plus JSON hit maps for click detection. Unlike v2's GGeoXml, v3's KmlLayer also exposes the data for individual markers on "click" event.
