thats too many features by a long shot.
your browser is hanging because its trying to render way to many geometrys.
 
Your going to have to limit your results even further.
combining a bbox strategy with the clustering strategy is a good setup.
 
personally i have my own filters i use that allow my users to narrow down what 
they are looking for.
i send those parameters along with my request and let the wfs narrow down the 
results serverside.

Subject: RE: [OpenLayers-Users] Problem to load a WFS



There are 8745 records in the database. That is why I tried to use the cluster 
strategy in the first place without success because of the error pointed out by 
Maxime. 

So I tried with a smaller dataset and the wfs layer and the cluster strategy 
works perfectly. 
It's still doesn't work for the "big" dataset. So I guess there a too many 
records. Even with the cluster strategy it doesn't load. 

1- Does the cluster strategy should work for 8745 records requested from a 
shapefile or postgis? 
2- I cannot set the visibility of this vector layer to false. The request is 
sent when the page load. 

Here is the definition of my Vector layer: 
var WFSstyle = new OpenLayers.Style({ 
     pointRadius: "${radius}", 
     fillColor: "#71FF00", 
     fillOpacity: 0.5, 
     strokeColor: "#000", 
     strokeWidth: 2, 
     strokeOpacity: 0.3 
}, { 
     context: { 
          radius: function(feature) {   
               return Math.min(feature.attributes.count,7) + 4; 
          } 
     } 
}); 
  
wfsStrategy = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("HLM WFS Strategy", 
     { 
          strategies: [ 
               new OpenLayers.Strategy.Fixed(), 
               new OpenLayers.Strategy.Cluster()                 
          ], 
          protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.HTTP({ 
               url: 
"http://geo.inspq.rtss.qc.ca/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/paccSante/map/paccsante2.map";,
 
               params: { 
                    format: "WFS", 
                    service: "WFS", 
                    request: "GetFeature", 
                    srs: "EPSG:900913", 
                    VERSION : "1.0.0", 
                    typename : 'HLM_shp_wfs2' 
               }, 
               format: new OpenLayers.Format.GML() 
          }), 
          styleMap:new OpenLayers.StyleMap({ 
               "default": WFSstyle, 
               "select": { 
                    fillColor: "#8aeeef", 
                    strokeColor: "#32a8a9" 
               } 
          }) 
     }, 
     { 
          extractAttributes:true, 
                  visibility: false, 
          displayInLayerSwitcher: true                       
     });

How many features are you getting?

In the console TAB there is a GET call to my WFS, 
http://geo.inspq.rtss.qc.ca/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/paccSante/map/paccsante2.map&typename=HLM_shp_wfs2&srsName=EPSG%3A900913&SERVICE=WFS&VERSION=1.0.0&REQUEST=GetFeature&SRS=EPSG%3A900913&BBOX=-13586195.339050002,2515633.1906250007,-1219295.6609499985,12299572.809375
 

I can see the Params and the Header but the Reponse tab is empty. After several 
minutes I got this message 




Here is line #1481 
return envelope;}},parseAttributes:function(node){var attributes={};var 
childNode=node.firstChild;var 
children,i,child,grandchildren,grandchild,name,value;while(childNode){if(childNode.nodeType==1){children=childNode.childNodes;for(i=0;i<children.length;++i){child=children[i];if(child.nodeType==1){grandchildren=child.childNodes;if(grandchildren.length==1){grandchild=grandchildren[0];if(grandchild.nodeType==3||grandchild.nodeType==4){name=(child.prefix)?child.nodeName.split(":")[1]:child.nodeName;value=grandchild.nodeValue.replace(this.regExes.trimSpace,"");attributes[name]=value;}}}}
 

If I call the link above directly int IE or Firefox I get the XML file. 
Also the memory of computer jump to 3gig and I got to kill firefox (I'm on 
windows) 

thanks for your help, 
Steve
