I usually opt for drawing my map vectors via GeoJSON/google.maps.Polygon. For me it offers more flexibility than KML or GeoRSS but it does slow things down a lot when drawing hundreds of vectors.
Have you considered simplifying your geometry? I'm not sure what you're using to push your GeoJSON but if you're using something like PostGIS you could try: st_asgeojson(transform(simplify(the_geom,1),4326)) In the case above the I'm simplifying with a tolerance of 1 (feet in my case), You'd have to adjust this for your coordinate system's units. If it's possible that not all of your polygons are within the current extent you could always hide the ones that aren't visible with some sort of filter. I'm not sure this extra overhead wouldn't slow down things even more though, but probably worth a try. Good luck.
