Description:
Hi, i am experimenting with this plugins, i have to animate like 50+ paths and it was horrible on performance.

After going deep, i understood that the current implementation of the plugin, do 1 svg for original path, 1 svg for animated one.

I have been rewritting the plugin to work with Canvas animation #55 and find that it performs nice.
(CheckOut https://github.com/dolpsdw/leaflet-ant-path)

But i think that the most performant way has to be CSS thread (i have not done chrome performance test).

So For optimizing 50+ paths i think the best way is to manualy create the canvas layer outside the plugin, and call the antPath with the multipath (this actualy works).

And end with 1 Canvas layer and 1 svg for animation of all.

Summary: Can you add a flag that will only render the antPath ? with no solid path ?

@dolpsdw are you seeing a "flashing" of the antPaths in Chrome? I have a project that is using 200+ antPaths, and it's producing a strange flashing effect when viewed in Chrome (no issue in Firefox)

@willhseitz Sorry, i didnt go near 200.
My test were inside ionic web render on an Android device.
The result was a slow animation :/
