Another subject: your mapserver/mapfile link have another issue (!), "Turn off unnecessary layers; the more layers MapServer is displaying, the more time it takes (...) is particularly true of remote WMS". | |

| Jul 17, 2013 at 10:33 | comment | added | Gery | (you're welcome) I think you misunderstood that part, one main map file means that other mapfiles will be called from this main map file. Thus this is done to split your one, big, do-everything map file. This means what you quoted recently: consider using multiple simple and specific Map Files", I don't see the contradiction here. | |
| Jul 17, 2013 at 10:30 | comment | added | Peter Krauss | Ok (thanks!), now it makes sense, with your edit and our discussion; but try to be objective for other readers: "the best (...) is to use one main mapfile" is a contradiction with "consider using multiple simple and specific Map Files". | |
