Description
I am getting this error message:
A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, open the script in the debugger, or let the script continue.
Script: http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_ALL/mapfiles/140g/maps2.api/main.js:110
I noticed this with the gmap-5.x-1.0-rc2 version and it persists with newer versions.
This site has been up for quite a while and the map functionality has been very robust. This problem surfaced a couple of months ago.
This is happening because of changes on the google end of things. I am hoping that there is a fix for this.

More details
This error message is from Firefox 3.5. (mac) - it does load the map.
In Firefox 3.1.0.4 (PC) there is no error message and it loads.
In IE6 it produces an error message but loads very slow.
It runs OK (no error) in Opera (mac and PC)
It runs OK (no error) in Safari

I noticed the same issues. Google's GMarkerManager was causing the problem. Once I set this back to use the API directly, the performance problems went away.
Hope this helps!

Thank you jasonh, problem solved.
I should have played with it a bit more before posting an issue. I guess it is good that this problem is documented.
