This is my first week in using MapPoint and I am just learning the ropes. I wrapped my route requests with a simple timer to see how long my requests are taking. Whereas my geocoding requests tend to be very fast (less than two seconds) my route requests are a whole different animal.

When using CalculateRoute my requests are in the neighborhood of 20 seconds. CalculateSimpleRoute does not buy me much as the requests are then taking about 16-17 seconds.

My requests are as follows:
myRoute = routeService.calculateRoute(routeSpec);
myRoute = routeService.calculateSimpleRoute(arrayLatLong, routeSpec.getDataSourceName(), SegmentPreference.Quickest);

Are there some basic things that I should be looking at that will optimize my requests?? Filters? Masks? etc??

Thanks,

Craig

Hi Craig,

Euh are you talking about MapPoint (desktop version) ? Because these methods are unknown to me. If you talk about MapPoint web service or Microsoft Virtual Earth there is another forum here also where you possible will have more success.

Yes I am using webservices. What forum would you recommend for those questions?

Thanks again,

Craig
