 From GregM on the users@ list:

 {{{
 There is still a problem with layer tiles downloading depending on map
 scale
 value in 2.5 RC.

 Tiles for invisible layers are downloaded from server after layer(s) goes
 beyond its minScale.
 Value of minScale is making layer not downloaded while map initialization
 but downloaded after zooming to scale < minScale, even if layer is not
 switched on.

 This makes server much more busy and generate unneeded traffic, resulting
 in
 map page much less respondent, especially with large overlays.
