It's a government agency that used some horrible contract vehicle to contract with a horribly inadequate contractor to build something half-assed. That's why performance is bad and I guarantee won't be notably better on even the best day.
My guess is that map cost about $150,000. I'd go look through records to find out if I had the time.
- ghouse 11y agoI used it a couple months ago. Performance wasn't bad then.

- cwmma 11y agosadly it's not anything that malicious, they're just using a wms type map setup which involves requesting a bounding box of the viewing extent and the server responding back with it, it's really really bad because it's impossible to cache and really slow. But sadly it's a 'standard' that many gis people think is a good idea.
- jessaustin 11y agoI appreciate the technical details, but this doesn't really contradict the parent. It's very possible that "horrible contractors" would implement ill-considered "best practices" like the one you describe.
