I ran into a little problem with the Google Map module. I have quite a few points to add on (I have about 250 on there now). I had problems with it timing out, and just found out there is a limit on points you can put on the map. Is there anyway around this? Maybe add another API key, another map, or something else?

Anyone else ran into this problem, and what did you do?

Thanks

250 points seems too low for it to be timing out already, but it's certainly possible. One thing you could do is to use the album filters to limit the number of items loaded. The ultimate solution, of course, would be to load the markers dynamically (AJAX).

Thanks for the reply. I had upwards of 900 to do, so what I did was limit jobs we've done to 2-3 per state, so that gave us a max of 150 total. This seemed to work fine.

Thanks again!
