If there is throttling, which would certainly explain this, Google
should really say so in their API. If it weren't for their rate
limiting, seems like it would load plenty fast since the 10 that work
ok come up quite fast. Forty doesn't seem like so many to me,
considering I've seen examples where there are 100s or even thousands
of markers. I understand they must not be geolocating for those, but
still...

I read and re-read the section in the API regarding geolocation (again
just now) and didn't see anything about a rate limit, other than the
2500/day limit. I appreciate your info and quick responses, to make up
for what the online references lacked!
