I’d be interested to know whether you’ve evaluated the client-side performance (user experience) of the tilekiln-shortbread-demo. I’m quite eager to use this technology and have set up a slightly modified clone of the demo for a specific application for a friend. However, he finds that it loads too slowly (compared to other maps on the same hardware) and has asked me to use a raster map instead. 😕

I’ve also noticed that the tilekiln-shortbread-demo (https://pnorman.github.io/tilekiln-shortbread-demo) performs noticeably worse on my hardware than other maps, but still within somehow acceptable limits (1-4s). On some browsers (e.g. Bromite on my Fairphone / Chromium on Desktop), it can even take around 20–30 seconds to load.

I don’t know where to look for bottlenecks and if there is anything I can do on the web developer side?

Dass nur die ersten wenigen mss-Dateien in Tilemill angezeigt werden ist leider einfach so. Du musst die Dateien in einem externen Editor bearbeiten. Viele Grüße
