Welcome to the community. :-)

Are you implementing a SVG viewer? Or you meant a map application
which uses SVG as visualization format.

Yes, performance with large/complex files is usually an issue... :-|

There are several techniques for reducing file sizes, some of which
are part of the SVG specification [2]. Nevertheless, keep in mind that
what usually affects interactivity the most is file complexity (number
of graphic elements, advanced content like filters, use of scripting,
etc.), something which is a bit more tricky to optimize...

Do you mean Java for SVG content manipulation or for SVG content
viewing? There are several Java toolkits for manipulating and/or
viewing SVG. One of the most popular is Apache Batik [2] (which has
support for both manipulation and viewing).



> What trade off between interactivity and file size for SVG?

There isn't a straight answer for this. As stated, this tightly
depends on file contents.

You may take a look at carto.net [3] for an excellent resource of
mapping samples and nice SVG techniques.
