<p>Hi all,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I think it is ready for a first public test .</p>
<p>Improvements:</p>
<p>1) Faster (esp. with large files), mostly because of an additional thread for OSM reade.
<br>
</p>
<p>If you are interested, please play with the max-threads value. On my machine with a core i5 I see better results with max-threads=6</p>
<p>than with the default ("4 auto").<br>
</p>
<p>2) Splitting planet with a rather small max-nodes value like 800000 now stores ~ 41000 of possible 65535 entries,<br>
</p>
<p>with r442 I saw > 58.000. If you reach a value of > 60000 in one of the "number of area dictionary entries: xxxxx of 65535"
<br>
</p>
<p>please contact the list. This limit may be increased to ~ 2^31 but with a larger memory footprint.<br>
</p>
<p>3) Some optimizations in the memory footprint of the custom maps may allow higher max-areas values.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I've changed the default for max-areas from 512 to 2048, this should work with typical PCs.</p>
