Solution

Build a spatial index for your layer's data source. See Add Spatial Index for more information.

More information

The spatial index is used to quickly locate features when you display, edit, or query data. Therefore, an appropriate spatial index is important, especially when you're working with large datasets.

It is very important to build a spatial index for your datasets. This will significantly increase map display performance as you navigate around your dynamic map.

See Setting spatial indexes for more information.
