Well, it can take minutes i.e. 2 or 3 with each pan or zoom action, with
only the maps for texas loaded.  admittedly, maybe there are too many
items enabled on the maps, so I can experiment there.

however, what I REALLY want to see is the online weather maps ....
I downloaded all the NWS shapefile maps and put them in coutnies, but I
would like to use a weeather image as the map overlay.  maybe I am not
doing something right here
