Hi Julie, can you post an example to see how you structured the file? Also which SVG viewer did you try? Also on which OS did you try, with how much memory and CPU power available?
But it might well be that 36000 circles are too much for the current SVG viewers. The currently existing viewers (ASV, Batik, MozillaSVG) are not capable of handling huge amounts of data. Although most of them work on improving the performance. Renesis (the upcoming SVG viewer to be released later this year or beginning of next year) claims to be much better, performance like. --------------- The other question is: do you really need 36000 circles? Without seeing the file/project I am guessing that one could perhaps aggregate things, or load chunks of the file doing network calls. In cartography, we usually aggregate elements, part of the generalization process. No human is actually capable to correctly perceive 36000 elements on a single screen at once. If your canvas is huge, you might just want to render the currently visible elements.
