[OpenLayers-Users] loading heavy WFS. solutions?

[Robert Sanson]

Wouldn't it be better to have a couple of layers defined in OL and have the data serverd from something like Featureserver, Geoserver or Mapserver. For zoomed out, request it as a WMS. When zoomed in, request it as WFS or GML?

Hi list,
I need to load a heavy GML (the original shapefile is >12 MB), and I
can't make any simplification, beacuse it's composed by little,
needed, polygons.
Has ever been experimented something to do a sort of "pyramids" with
vectorial features? The only solution I can imagine is to produce
various simplifications, and then call different GMLs on the base of
the zoom factor... Well, it isn't a solution, it would be just a
horrible workaround!

Any idea to share?
