Hi,
Another solution to this could be using an ACF addon that adds a new type of Google Map field allowing you to add more than one marker to the Map field. That way, instead of loading 1 map field for every marker, you could have 1 map field for theoretically as many markers as you need. That should not only make your admin page load a lot quicker but also make your markers a lot more manageable.

Hello,
I’m a little late to this thread but I thought I’d reply anyway in case it helps anyone else.
I’ve recently released an ACF plugin that does pretty much exactly as described above. It’s a new Google Map field that gives you the ability to add more than one marker to the map field (admin side) without any need for a repeater. Definitely makes managing locations pins, etc much easier for WordPress admins.

Hello,
I might be a bit late to this one but I’ve recently released a free ACF addon that somewhat solves this problem. The plugin adds a new Google Map field that basically removes the need for repeater fields when using a Google Map field for more than one location – you can just put all your locations/pins/markers onto one Google Map field. All your locations would be visible in one map on the admin side.
