Bake hybrid tiles in-memory #190

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Currently it seems like, for drawing hybrid map tiles, the program renders the 
satellite tile, and then renders the transparent roads tile on top of it, 
taking double the time to render and causing a noticeable speed and 
responsiveness penalty when dragging the map.

My suggestion is to "bake" the road overlay on top of the sattelite image 
inside the tiles cache, therefore the overlay render costs are paid only once, 
and afterwards when the tile is to be rendered, only one image will need to be 
rendered to the screen.
