One of my clients exclusively uses IE8 and is working with an openlayers map. He is trying to load 3000 polygons onto the map, which Chrome and IE9 can handle without any issues. However, IE8 freezes when attempting to load the objects. These objects are coming from a web service as JSON XML, being parsed and then added to the vector layer. IE8 throws an exception when trying to add the objects:
"Stop running this script? A script on this page is causing Internet Explorer to run slowly ..."
I have attempted to load the features using multithreading, but it proves to be too slow.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this issue in IE8?
