<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Hi Lambertus,<br><br>okay, if I got that right you finally get *.img files with a size <br>near (but below) 8MB, so maybe Henning can use that script, too.<br><br>If you do that for e.g. Germany, how small is tpically the smallest *.img file ?<br>Is it probably near 4 MB?<br><br>Gerd<br><br><div>> To: mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk<br>> Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2014 20:30:27 +0200<br>> From: osm@na1400.info<br>> Subject: Re: [mkgmap-dev] mkgmap ToDo list<br>> <br>> These are the direct results from Splitter. The format is o5m, both <br>> input as output. Splitter version is: r321.<br>> <br>> For this test I split the original source with --max-nodes=8000000. Then <br>> I render the initial tiles, when the result is larger than 8MB it's <br>> subsplit again with --max-nodes=(8000000-(attempt*100000)). The initial <br>> source files are ~70MB (o5m) and after several subsplits the two *.img <br>> are < 8MB. During this process --max-nodes has been reduced to e.g. <br>> 7500000 and the source file is split up in two o5m files of about 37MB.<br>> <br>> I can upload an example source file and it's two subsplit siblings if <br>> you want.<br>> <br>> <br>> On 2014-04-29 19:38, GerdP wrote:<br>> > Hi Lambertus,<br>> > <br>> > that's interesting.
