Yes, I forgot to test with IE7 and tested only with new browsers. Thanks a lot for the help. I'm evaluating whether a custom javascript map is a better user experience but then I think I can't load KML marker to a custom map that would be an imagemap of a country. Both solutions are good and a cust

This was solved trivially by increasing the deadline which deosn't make the user wait since it's a cron job that refreshes the file. So now my KML is not generated on the fly anymore and is a blob in the appengine blobstore that gets refreshed once a day. Performance is quite good but not as good
