Konstantinos, it is capable of big loads, but simply needs more servers for
full Wikipedia support. Also, for direct on-page use, e.g. infoboxes, I am
writing an extension -- Kartographer
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Kartographer>, that should be
available shortly.

You can see the demo here <http://vem.wmflabs.org/wiki/Main_Page>.  Other
demos: 2 <http://vem.wmflabs.org/wiki/NYCStateSenateDistricts>, 3
<http://vem.wmflabs.org/wiki/WikiVoyage>.  Feel free to play with it.

Once that is done, we will launch it on WikiVoyage first, and later,
hopefully, on all Wikipedias.
