Hi, SVG2 is deprecated and no longer maintained. Canvas is initially fast for rendering many vertices, but it is not good if you don't do many interactive symbolizer changes (e.g. feature selection with visual feedback) on layers with tons of features, because it has to redraw the whole viewport for every such change. SVG supports a few more symbolizer properties than Canvas, but Canvas is catching up.
