Caching it on your server, probably does violate the terms not sure, but definitly is not to be recommended, as you wont be able to pickup updates.
I seriouslly doubt your server is going to be faster than Googles for most visitors (it might for you as you closer), so all you really going to save is a DNS lookup, and people are likly to have www.google.com cached anyway, and the API goes on to load furhter stuff, so its only delaying it a tinybit. Its not using the jsapi loader, but an example here of loading on demand. http://www.nearby.org.uk/google/static3.php As you forgot to inlcude a link to your map we cant really help diagnose your issue. Certainly should be possible.
