[Geomoose-users] Are Polys or lines faster

[Jim Dahl]

Hi all, which is faster to render, polygons or lines.  I have a water
layer with about 19,000 polygons and intend on showing them as line
features instead of polygons.  Would it be faster to convert them to
line shapefiles or leave them as polygon shape files.  I can try my test
and report back but wanted an official opinion from the group also.
 
Thanks alot.
