Question

I have my android app and I want to show on my MapActivity 5 000 GeoPoints.
For This I use the next code:

for(BusinessUnitMapModel model : DeviceClientApplication.getInstance().getBusinessUnitList()){
            GeoPoint point = new GeoPoint((int)(Double.parseDouble(model.getLatitude())*1E6),(int)(Double.parseDouble(model.getLongitude())*1E6));
            OverlayItem overlayItem = new OverlayItem(point, "", "");
            itemizedOverlay.addOverlay(overlayItem);
}

But my application crashes when I try to enter to MapActivity.

May be somebody know how to add thousand of GeoPoints?

I figure out that solution is to create additional server side Service which send not more than 50 stores according to screen coordinates (top-right and left-bottom). So if user zoom-out or zoom-in the map view Android application will send new requests to server-side. Any way user can’t to see all 5000 points on the screen and user dont need that.
