[mapguide-users] Programatically create MGP Packages or dynamically load shape files

[Zac Spitzer]

the issue with unmanaged shp's & sdf's is still there....
http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/ticket/175

if your after performance, create individual featureSource's per file
as there is a big slowdown,

single tiles don't suffer as much as there is one fdo connection per
map request per layer (etc)

with a tiled map you have to multiple that by the number of 300x300px
tiles visible
