I have ol.source.Cluster with ol.source.Vector as a source with ol.Collection as features property of the vector source.
Every second a do a request to server to get some updates which leads to bulks of operations like push/remove/geometry edits on given ol.Collection.
The problem is because for every single(one by one) mentioned action, ol.Colection ol.Feature triggers an event(add, remove, change) which is caught eventualy by the cluster which makes an internal extensive task - ol.source.Cluster.prototype.refresh_(). A solution is to add methods(e.g. ol.Collection.silentPush(), ol.geom.*.silenceSetCoordinates()) which doesn't trigger these events or capabilities to remove the default events on ol.Collection or ol.Feature, and let the user to manual make a refresh after all operations are made. In this case all changes would be processed at once, not one by one => reducing the number of ol.source.Cluster.refresh_() calls.
I saw a similar problem
here but he might solve his problem using arrays instead of olCollection. I cannot do this, because i don't replace all features with new ones, but just edit a part of them.
I also posted on SO
here, where i tried to find out how to remove certain default event listeners.
Any other ideas, how to reduce this performance impact?
