I'm more or less happy with the current limit. I can't speak for anyone
else of course.

I would love to be able to turn off specific tracks (ie don't draw
trackpoints from track-20051023.gpx.gz, or all tracks uploaded within a
date range). However that would complicate the applet somewhat.

In general, I log at a comparitively high rate (1 trkpt/sec). Does this
cause problems for anyone, or is a high rate preferred?
