I'm trying to map around 226,000 markers for research purposes. Is this something viable with Leaflet? In the official documentation refers to 10,000 and 50,000 as "A LOT".

    What's stopping you from testing it? And, more importantly, who should be deciding where exactly the line between *"acceptable"* and *"not acceptable"* should be drawn for your application? – tao Apr 06 '21 at 14:31
  • Already tried it, below 50,000 works fine, but everytime I add more variables and call more files for reading the coordinates it just doesn't work... wondering if the task of mapping so much points is even a thing. – Grimm Carmine Apr 06 '21 at 14:35

    Well, I can tell you this much: you can't fit 226k markers on a screen. You should consider clustering and vector mapping. Clustering is the industry standard for this problem and it works remarkably well. – tao Apr 06 '21 at 14:37

    You may also take a look at [pixi overlay](https://github.com/manubb/Leaflet.PixiOverlay) as a tool to render this many markers through the use of canvas - its a nice solution as well. – Seth Lutske Apr 06 '21 at 15:51
  • Yes. I've already tried it with 1M points ( Total load time ~ 10 seconds, https://store.poidata.xyz/18660 ) – Ervin Ruci Jun 02 '21 at 17:39
