have you found any resolution to this problem ? I have the same problem with V3 API, where more then cca. 15 kml layers couse the error "NetworkError: 414 Request-URI Too Large". different kml layers are displayed with "new google.maps.KmlLayer( kml_url, options)".
Every object (route or marker) is on its own kml layer, because it has to get dynamicaly assigned event listener. If i group more objects into single KML, i dont know how to manipulate single object before displaying it on the map. Tnx.
