I'm using leaflet in this 5.000 POI map to show the distribution of
estates in Iceland
http://osm.hlidskjalf.is/map-estates.php#7/64.767/-18.666
It seems adequate although zooming slows a bit down, each node is
clickable but at the moment only contains the name.

What's the best way to create a global "single point of interest" map,
with OSM?
I'm thinking something like this local pay phone map:
https://a.tiles.mapbox.com/v4/brycenesbitt.j82lj086/page.html?access_token=pk.eyJ1IjoiYnJ5Y2VuZXNiaXR0IiwiYSI6ImNFME9IckkifQ.Nd85HRRFP3Jy3gx8nQ3ATA#14/37.8699/-122.2603
But global, and with all the tags for each node shown when the node is
clicked on.
Or this global drinking water map:
https://www.google.com/fusiontables/embedviz?q=select+col3+from+1usHO73s_NDGKOx-2jbj0xtSHuHjxvWVo_2MvX_o&viz=MAP&h=false&lat=41.571877511144756&lng=-83.65702047624372&t=1&z=4&l=col3&y=2&tmplt=2&hml=GEOCODABLE
But it feels wrong to use Google maps as the backdrop for OSM data,
despite the advantages (the map above has 35,000 nodes many with
photos, and yet it is snappy fast on any browser).
What's a better way to do this?

Note: The mapbox map started with an overpass API query.
The fusion table example was an extract from the planet file, merged
into a fusion table. Google's servers create and cache bitmaps with
the POI's. User clicks look up the matching data. Thus it renders as
fast as a slippy map, but has all the POI's readily available.
