I've been trying to get some JavaScript effects to operate smootly over a (huge) SVG image. Every transition I try over the SVG image itself turns out really choppy. When I try the same effect on a part where the SVG image is not present it's displayed smoothly...
Check it out here: http://gavro.nl/expo/svgtest/wereldkaart.html (note: really big imgs >> site is supposed to run locally...) I've tried simplifying the svg, but even at a factor 10x less lines/ points, the effects are still choppy... How can I solve this problem? PS. Site is developed to run in Opera (9.5). In Firefox some things will not work, and 'choppyness' is overall even _much_ worse then in Opera....
