Hi Tom,
When your geometries are too many or too complex (or both) you need to
compromise somewhere.
There are 2 more approaches you can take:
1) Use an approach similar to what Eric mentioned. Use a WMS layer, but
on hover send a request to the server to get the id (and possible other

Thanks, Ian; hm, many of the polygons we're using are adjoining, like
counties, and my guess is that generalizing them would make their borders a
bit messy, and it might be a bit of work to try it out. I'll ask our
GeoServer/OL support person what he thinks about it, though.
Any other ideas for
Could you generalize your polygons to speed up vector performance?

Hi all,
I've read about a couple of methods (clustering strategy, choosing WFS or
WMS based on zoom level) for working around the issue of WFS layers being
unusable for performance reasons when large numbers of complex features are
involved. Neither of these are terribly good solutions for our m
