Uncleared items on map?

I should add logging to the server to better understand its capacity in terms of the number of users and the number of objects. Perhaps it got overloaded yesterday.

I've just added object counts (by type), the current CPU load on the server, and a running count of each type of call. I should have done this yesterday...

Is a client-side issue, because refreshing the page immediately fixes the problem.

Seems to only happen when in low-bandwidth situation (can't repro on wifi so far), so likely is waiting for URL send/receive, then compounding by fixed timers. Instead try throttling down when responses take too long or fail.
