[mapserver-users] Layer rendering performance problem

[Jon-Paul Dobson]

Thanks guys. I will give this ago. Any ideas about poor performance when
using a true type font? Why does MapServer need to load the .ttf file each
time to draw a symbol. Surely the ttf file should be cached?

Rgards,
Jon-Paul.
