In version 3.4 on March 2nd we released Canvas markers: http://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/wiki/JavascriptMapsAPIv3Changelog Canvas supports about 10 times more markers than the non-optimized markers, addressing a long-standing complaint that our old markers were very slow.
Unfortunately we can't keep old API versions around forever because the private HTTP interfaces used by Google Maps API change over time. Instead we support 3 versions in parallel, so that sites can test and upgrade on their own timetable. - Ben On Sat, Sep 3, 2011 at 12:35 AM, Robert Aspinall <raspin...@gmail.com>wrote: > Thanks, and we'll do that, but why did this occur between 3.3 and 3.4? > > The frustration we feel is that we have many applications out there using > this API, under an enterprise license.
