I have a relatively large svg (3 mb) with many other small svgs in a container on a view, and like google maps I am moving it around and zooming into it. In browser these actions can be a bit slow and choppy. I am quite new to this so I am wondering if someone with more experience would know if this is my browser/pc limitations or would it be limited by our gateway which I believe has 2 gb. Would increasing this increase performance significantly?

Most modern browsers have pretty good built-in developer tools that include the ability to profile performance.

I can almost guarantee that the problem is on the browser side, though; a ‘heavy’ SVG makes no difference to your gateway vs a ‘light’ one - but is significantly harder to actually draw and present, which is entirely handled by the browser.
