Version 1.1 starts to be slow even for visualization for documents of 100+ sentences with a moderate annotation density. However, there have been a number of requests to support the visualization of annotations of full-length scientific articles. The relevant sizes are around 500 sentences and a few thousands of annotations for a longer bio-domain paper annotated with events.

This is a potentially important use case, and it might be possible to scale to this level with some work. We might also consider progressive rendering.
