Remove overview window from default openlayers output
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-1237
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-1237
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: Chris Holmes
Assignee: Justin Deoliveira
Fix For: 1.5.2, 1.6.0-rc1
Though the overview window is nice, it can cause some serious performance hits if the map is big. And since this is a preview we're going to get cases where people just try to put too much data. It's especially bad, since one strategy is to switch to untiled view, which in theory should have better performance. But the overview map ends up creating lots of requests, and with a large shapefile I basically froze geoserver before I could get to untiled mode successfully.
So I think we could make it a vendor param to turn on the overview map, but we should turn it off by default.
