Size of the dataset and time loading #266

Closed ghost closed 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

Is there a limitation on the size of the dataset that one can use? I have got a fairly large dataset (about 500k) points and it seems to get stuck when I try to do a scatterplot.

Thanks for raising this.

Google maps doesn't really support drawing more than a few thousand points. For higher-dimensional datasets, it probably makes more sense to use a heatmap. Marker clustering (issue #137) would also resolve this, but is not implemented yet (PRs welcome!).

Closing this, since we already have issue #137 for marker clustering and a reference to dataset size limitations in the docs.
