Hi Jukka, Thank you for your reply.
Well, I guess that I am then not understanding the mechanisms behind WMS. Let me clarify that *I do not know* if it is faster when it shows a smaller area, I am trying to test it out - so I would like to ask whether it is possible for GeoServer to limit what part of the world's bathymetry map it serves to a certain geographical extent. Thanks again for any help, Nikola On Thu, Nov 11, 2021 at 10:57 AM Rahkonen Jukka (MML) < jukka.rahko...@maanmittauslaitos.fi> wrote: > Hi, > > > > Could you clarify, do you mean that the remote WMS is slow when it shows > the whole World but fast when the area is small?
