Hi Andreas,

What Phil meant is that you should switch to a WMS server returning an image to display your all your features, and if you need to query or manipulate them use WFS but only with a small number of features at a time.

HTH,

Alexandre

Thanks! But where exactly would be the benefit of switching from KML to GML3 for example? GML is "just" another xml-structure OpenLayers would have to evaluate...? Or would you recommend switching to JSON-output for WFS? How would you create the features on client-side in that case?

Kind regards,
Andreas
